A man stood on the beach just outside the City of Realms watching the emerald waves roll in and out, breathing deep the salty air, and enjoying the sound of far off seagulls. The sky was clear, the sun already past the noon hour, and no signs of bad weather on any horizon, not even from the mainland where winter was in slowly driving down from the Far North, beyond the mountains and the mysteries past that. Somewhere else down the beach a group of children ran from the city steps and towards the water, chased by their chaperone, a large maid far too old to be chasing youngsters through the villa's private beach. The man chuckled as he w

The Dark One... Comes
The god of Necromancy awoke into a dark and empty void
The other gods still slumbered.
Necromancy tried to form itself a companion and found the void lacking physical substance
An angel could not be made.
From void to void Necromancy found only silent gods that reused to awaken for their brethren
The Waking God became bitter
Its countenance began to corrupt
Then a link was found
A portal
And so Necromancy found the World of Demons and made its first friend in a beast called Saga'rath.
They planned such grand and spiteful things to do
To the other gods
Still t
A god awoke and examined the cosmos
It found a family of celestial bodies
Three children of the sun and moon
Beautiful offspring of primordial creation
The first child of the stars
Would become
The spouse
Of
Necromancy.
There is a world that is
Magnificent and magical
A world full of the fantastic
A Place
Where magic is real
And evil wears a black cloak.
And good is bathed in golden light.
This world has two siblings
Both younger
Twins
They are places where good
Is greater
And evil Hides from the hero.
They are paradise
Until Now!
A black sunrise fills the soul
While a yellow moon haunts the mind
Rivers of sorrow rush forth
Fed by mountains of disgust
All this while the grey moon
Casts shadows over the land
Of disturbed mornings and nights
No greater hate hath any man
That he lay down the life of another
For more
Power.
The sun sinks and the night rules
Its fiends excited
And elated!
Tonight there will be
Blood!
Embrace the night
Fear the dawn
Black soul
Diseased mind
Untold sorry
And immortal disgust
Fear your shadow during the
Black sunrise
Every New beginning
Comes from some Old
Beginnings End
Learn this Well
Trist`tal.
No Darkness is complete.
He once stood in the Dark
Destroying what was new
Trist`tal knew no better
Way to revive the old
And make life well again.
The end was him.
None could end
His consuming darkness
And make all well
The new could not come
Before the old was gone.
Trist`tal was lost.
Trist`tal,
Could see the end
As the old began to die
And the darkness fade
Only to begin anew
When all was well.
It was a well of Light
That Trist`tal found
Full of new life
It was the end of ends
The bane of darkness
And replaced the old.
No longer
Rough palms and strong fingers
Always fighting, upholding justice
His mind green and full of shadow
Is it the destination or journey that matters?
Soft topaz eyes smiles, Where have you come from?
So many trees and yet so little life
A world of dreams
Awaits those who dare to question.
His mask a celebration of life and colour
Feet always pound, pounding, pounding
His jumping, leaping never grows tired
He never stops
Every motion, gesture a praise
The fire never changes
Always different
A soft crackle
A warm light
And smooth heat
Forever does he dance
To the fires perfect rhythm
Never will the darkness oppress
Nor will it intimidate
The land is so bright
That the mind thinks it dark
Always will the light embrace
That which is good
Only one other sees the dancer
Only one other knows this place
Only one other can come here
Just by closing his eyes
This place is always wonderful
It needs only one t
Always dancing. Always moving. Never stopping. Never resting. The fire burns on and on. Still the ritual continues. Nothing changes. Nothing dies. The Fire and Dancer are forever.
Squatting to the side a hut stares at the Fire. Its door never closes and never opened. Within is only a clay basin of always clean water and a small mat, which passes as a bed, a guest bed, for the Dancer never stops. There was no straw roof, for there were no fell storms to ward off and no unforgiving sun to hide from.
In a realm of perpetual darkness there was only the Fire for light and the Dancer for company. There were no hot or cold, bright or dark. The F
And so the darkness came and went, having stayed for only a short season o the mind. The darkness was more then a lack of light. It was a growing, festering, thing that brought nameless, macabre horrors. It was a parasite that thrived on the corrupt thoughts of those it infected. Every dark thought gave it more powers, energy, and control. For many days and nights the Darkness held unswaying authority over the mind. It would slowly reach out to infect others through the infected thoughts. For everything it was not, the Darkness was clever and witty. So easily could it out smart the lost and confused. Everywhere one turned the Darkness was th
It's such a wonderful thing,
The way people make you feel,
When you feel all alone,
And deserted.
No one can understand,
The ideas of the lonely.
So many ideas to filter.
Some of them are wonderful.
Others misunderstood.
Feelings become confused,
And desert reasoning,
Wanting no longer to be alone.
Why is it when we are alone,
That ideas are in abundance?
And make us want to desert outselves?
All we want is something wonderful,
That helps us feel loved.
We just want understanding.
When will we finally understand,
That alone we are weak?
And we only feel strong,
Believe our ideas are grand,
And think we understand ourselv
Nothing will come and go like I will.
What makes me different is,
I always come back,
Even if I never left.
Away is a place,
I never want to know again.
When I go away,
It is not my own doing.
And when I go away,
Hateful things will come,
And try to take you,
Away.
When I go away,
It hurts every time,
And never feels the same.
No matter how little sympathy.
No matter how little I care.
Bring forced Away always burns.
When I go away,
I will always try,
To take the road,
That leads me,
Away,
And back again.
Sitting back, doing nothing, I watch,
As an injustice breeds and grows.
--Something horrid drifts in with the wind,
--Threatening grotesque actions and words.
A macabre feeling settles on my mind,
Begging for action and not speculation.
--The feeling continues to grow,
--Continues to fester.
Often times I withdraw into myself,
Looking for a solution to the issue.
--Every conclusion leaves me feeling...
--Powerless and alone.
There is,
Foreverything,
A time,
A place,
A reason,
A method.
For many seasons,
There are details,
The time is now,
The place is here,
The reason is someone else,
The method is delicate.
Seasons of the heart,
Are short and fragile,
The time is soon,
The place is your heart,
The reason is it hurts,
The method is long.
The mind always looks,
At how time passes, because,
The time has gone,
The place is destroyed,
The reason is corrupt,
The method is incorrect.
Nothing comes or goe
No matter how close
Or how loud
The voices are distant
And muffled
No matter how warm
Or how attentive
The feeling is weak
And hardly lasts
No matter how loving
Or how caring
There is always someone else
That gets the final product
But in the end
I will find a way
To obtain a small piece
Of love and affection
For myself
There once was an inner person
Who did not care
What was happening
Or not happening
But lately that person
Has been off and away
Leaving room for someone to care.
It never used to be like this
Never used to hurt so much
To see others walk away
And it only happens when
I find myself caring too much.
Nothing can undo
What has been set in motion
By the inner lack of sympathy
To return feeling
To a lost
And lonely
Co
There used to be a great shining in here long ago, when all was well. Soon, however, strife and confusion came along and covered the bright, warm light and everything became blurred and unclear. People changed, only because they were seen differently. It was point-of-view that the strife and confusion ruined and made corrupt. The self-appointed mission was a flawless success; for a short season of the mind
During that season strife and confusion prospered and enjoyed the spoils of war; war that could not be lost. For many long attempts the shine attempted to return and was beat back by the enemy. No other ally came to war against
It took such an inner strength and resolve he thought it would all come tumbling down after countless hours of training and preparing. The room was hot, stale, and filled with the choking scent of unwashed and overworked human bodies. For days on end the room had been like this and it was looked upon as a gift from God that fresh air sometimes flowed from under the door. The biggest disappointment was that if fresh air did enter the room it would stay there and soon be polluted with the heat and smell. More often then not the polluted air would flow out of the room causing complaints from those foolish enough to breathe while walking by. This
What makes you feel,
As if nobody is interested,
In what you have to offer?
Where can you go,
When no one seems to care,
If you hurt or not?
Is there a place,
You came from long ago,
Where you felt good?
May I have,
The honour,
Of taking you to,
A place where you are valued,
A place where you are cared for,
A place where you can feel cared for,
To feel loved?

From time to time I get wild hairs to do things. While most of my old journals usually end up being thrown away with shame and embarrassment, I've kept just one of them, a very small one, as a reminder of things from time to time. Well, this journal has been reopened, so to speak, and some of the things going down in it aren't really all that private and I figured I'd put them up here just for shits and giggles. The entry here takes place mid-entry on paper.
"Perhaps I could try and write about how I view life by detailing current events as I see them. Thus far that seems to be the only productive option. So it shall be, to the best of my ab
Okay, so I added three more pieces. I even put a thumbnail in each that will identify it as the Series: The Dark One Comes at a glance upon clicking the link. Anything with that little hooded head above the piece marks it as apart of the series, even if not indicated in the description beneath. Enjoy.
