Lanyth: Burn

I feel the hate burn inside you

Turning your soul a cinder

Leaving you without a voice

Or hope or future promise.

You think that if you do not care,

You won't be hurt again;

So now you are contented

To walk along an open trail;

And those who come behind you

Are helpless victims blind.

The love I have given you

Is dead upon my lips:

The pain I felt before

Has grown into despair.

I watch the fear grow thick and strong,

While others turn away—

The terror and the dread you bring—

The blood runs cold and thin.

The madness and the horror—

They wait at the door.

They've always been here, and they'll never leave you—

The demons of the past!

For you are doomed to live with them forever

Until the moment you perish from this world.

I know what's coming...

I know that your heart will break!

But let this truth console your spirit.

When all is lost to you:

The agony will end in glory

And only your God ...knows how.

Greetings, My Friends!

The first post to get us started, let us begin this journey together. On this blog, you shall find the stories I tell at the Maiden's Fancy to friends and listeners. I am always deeply honored by those who choose to be a part of my storytelling, I think you, and sharing my words is like sharing my love with you all. This community has always been welcoming of my exploration of my creative side, and sharing stories is at the center of who I am as a creator and as a person. Also note, stories published in in-game books are owned by Daybreak - so my work cannot be published in-game with player books. I am preserving my rights to self-publish, and work published here is under my control and usage rights. And if you ever wish to hear the next part of the story told live some day, by the writer herself, please feel free to join us every Thursday, at 8p EST, in Everquest 2, on the Antonia Bayle server, and join the RP channels (/join RPLFG and /join RPEvents) to help find the venue. Or re...
