Thoughts of the ForgottenA Story by Vouren It
has been an eternity since I have seen the light. The watchers trapped me here,
between the worlds I ruled. Time doesn’t exists in this place, an eternity of
nothing. My hunger grows with each passing moment, my need to devour the lives
of the living pulses through my body like blood. My imprisonment
was unjust. Cast aside for doing what I was created to do, kill. I am death and
none before have accomplished their calling as efficiently as I. All existence trembled
at my name, and none stood in my wake. Beyond
the veil of my existence my brothers still roam free. Their nature being an
accepted risk of being human. War, Conquest, and Famine fill the hearts of the
weak and strong alike…but here I roam, surrounded by nothingness and, at the
same time, everything. The
veil between the worlds is thinning and it won’t be long until it’s passable
once again. Words have been thrown between the minds of humans regarding the
amount of time I’ve been trapped. Has it been megaannum or
maybe exaannum? Millions or Trillions? Time has no meaning anymore, just
the hunger, the lust to destroy. My entire nature was to lay waste life and it
was taken from me. Sometimes
I can feel the souls of the living, almost as if I was free…but that thought is
absurd. They have forgotten me almost entirely. I’m only spoken of in whispers,
the Forgotten One, a name that has touched every set of lips or every thought. Emptiness
is fading and I can smell the borders of the two worlds merging...clashing
together as they become one again. My brother can feel my presence once more
and their wars have begun gaining momentum… a wasted effort, an attempt to prepare
for my return. Eternity
has made me hungry, the emptiness has created a monster, and the unjustness of
my imprisonment has left me without remorse. All life will end and none shall
stand vastness of true Death, for nothing can escape my grasp. Men
and Gods alike will fear the return of geidfi pna ufsnnar… was that my name?
Time has destroyed my mind more than I thought. Maybe as I slaughter all life
it will come back to me. Is that how memory worked? Do I really care? Not really,
I just want to do what I was meant to do…swallow the world in Death. © 2013 VourenAuthor's Note
