6820 SC, Magnar Empire, Kalfith City, Siventis Roams

Today my life's work would be complete. I can finally
hold my head high and say that my work is worthy of a
scholar from Magnar Empire.

S.Roams: "Only the Epilouge left..."

Saying it out loud made it feel more real to me, I guess.

??? : "Then I am right on time"

I wanted to turn around and get a clear look at the intruder
but he got to the candles first. As I struggled to get up
from my seat, I felt a sharp pain like the pain one would
feel from an ant bite around my ankle. It was at that exact
moment that I came face to face with my own frailty.

As I fell on to the hard wooden floor, I felt nothing. Even
my own thoughts had begun to slow down to a crawl.

As I saw flames consume everything around me, I wanted to
laugh at the absurdity of it all. My life's work, which I sought
to finish at expense of everything else, even my own flesh
and blood, will never be finished while, in a few short
moments, I surely will be.

??? : "Ignis consumit"

As the fire slowly began licking his extremities, for some
reason I imagined that if the intruder would look at my face
right now, at this exact moment, he would be find a smile
plastered over my face.

Our story like most, begins with death but before we reach
the end, I assure you the mountains of corpses and rivers of
blood that would result from this single death, this single
point of origin, would never compare in significance to this
one death.

Thank you for taking your time to read this prologue. I have many,many ideas swirling around in my head, but I am really not sure how everything would play out in the long run. I would love and welcome any and all speculations you have regarding the story and its characters.
