1 The Night Was Dark

The crisp air of the nights breeze howled through the forest in a deathly call that lorded it's dominion over the boundless glades of the slagheart oaks. The rasping clatter of their leaves a cacophony of grinding gears as if the whole Forrest was encased in wright iron. These sounds felt soft in comparison to the crackling sky overhead,then with the call of boundless thunder game forth a rending tone as the very air from the sky shattered as space rended itself in 2. With the strength of an atomic bomb a blinding streak of white and purple crashed through the shattered space, the air and the very laws of the world seemed to move to intercept the blinding streak. As if a host trying to repell a pathogen from entering the very fabric of space seemed to stretch as countless blinding sparks of explosions shattered through the stretching space shattering through everything in its path. Without success the worldly laws shattered without the strength to stop the object.

Then with a blinding flash that seemed to blow the whole world in darkness the earth exploded as the streak impacted the Forrest. Before the flash disappeared it was all over, a crater wrought the earth countless leagues across and miles deep. the trees were blown over and strained against the earth that sent splinters through the solid earth. In the center of the crater cast across the ground were 2 figures, a man in a tattered black robe smoldering with embers of a purple flame lay clutching a woman in white robe adorned with purple lightning scars scattered across her face. They did nothing to hamper the beauty of her face as she seemed to shiver as the man stirred. as he rose from the ground he saw the woman he was holding stirr as well. in a flurry he cupped his hand to her face as her eyes just barely fluttered open.

"my love" He cried out his words filled with the sorrows of boundless tragedy as he gazed upon her pained face that seemed to soften to a smile as she gazed at him.

"huh hufh" she gazed back at the man catching the look of his face with tears flooding from his eyes. "wh-why are you crying my dear" her hollow voice leaked out of her lips a whisper in the howling night that struck upon his ears as a hammer upon a harpstring."my beloved smile won't you, it hurts to watch you cry.."

"of course my little Wisteria flower" a hopeless smile cracked across his face as his tears seemed to redede for but a moment."my love, I will see you soon..."as the words left his lips he drew her close to his heart as he watched the vibrance leave her eyes. "oh my love no one could heal my heart and no revenge could satisfy me or atone for you." he paused as his eyes traced upon the cracked sky still not fully healed from the cataclysm."Regardless the heavens will atone themselves of its wrath. May they know boundless fury for its action, I will find no solice in this task only it's boundless emptyness. I will wash this river clean before I cross it for you,may we meet again when I am through." With his final declaration she slowly vanished from his arms into a flurry of white and purple motes that scattered to the corners of the earth. The burning of the purple flames withered away as so did his very core as all his power had finally burned away from his body leaving him as nothing but a shell of himself.

as he lost his conscious mind to the abyss he felt his body falling and collapse to the ground before remembering nothing at all.
