Every soul tastes death.
    
    At the moment we are born, Death begins his walk. He makes no hurry, for he has all the time in the world.
    
    Throughout our lifetimes, the only thing we can be sure of is that they will end. One way or another.
    
    But what if Death's pace suddenly ended? 
    
    What if our numbered days suddenly became limitless?
    
    The Empire of Arlenia is now drowned in death, plagued by a deadly civil war that has gone on for seven bloody years.
    
    Just as the violence reaches its peak, the death count drops from dozens dead every day to zero. No one finds themselves able to die, no matter the injury.
    
    The empire drowned in death finds itself drowned in life.

The Greylands: Modern Edition by SusanSkylark
1 part Complete
A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.

WARNING: this book includes blood, manipulation, cursing, and mature topics (not smut please don't think that). Feel free to click off if any of these make you uncomfortable. ~•~ Something about it was so mysterious about this cave, and I wanted to know more. I entered the cave and saw a red crystal sealed in ice. "Woah." I whispered. The crystal glowed and the ice shattered. I jumped back and fell to the ground, watching as the ice broke completely. My eyes widened and I looked at my hands. "Did I do that?" I asked, but before I could answer, I heard a guard shout for backup as they had heard the ice shattering. I quickly jumped up and stashed the crystal in my pocket before leaving. I crept to the cave the following day, putting the crystal back into the remains of the ice pillar. As I walked away, the crystal fell, causing it to break into a million pieces. I jumped at the sudden noise and stumbled backwards, my eyes widening as a black smog formed around the crystal. "No, no, no, no! Frick." I desperately tried to grab the remains of the crystal, causing one to cut my hand. "Ow! Shit." I whispered, looking at my bleeding hand. "Tch, tch, tch, poor child." A demonic voice said. I looked up and saw that the black smog had two red eyes and a wide, sick smile that was dripping with venom. "I- who are you?" I asked, backing up. "The one who can help you out of here." It said, stretching out a hand. I looked it up and down and before I could answer, its hand plunged into my heart, causing me to scream out in pain.

The Reaper

23 parts Ongoing Mature

All my life, I thought I knew how evil this world can be. And just when I thought things changed for the better, everything made a quick and unforeseen turn. I saw what this very evil truly looks like, and it is far more sinister than I realized. I know because this very evil is what killed me. And then after my death, I asked myself, "why am I not dead?" and the answer was obvious. It is because I actually am dead, and the only reason I'm still breathing is because I was reborn into something far more sinister than these evils. ...Soon, my thirst for vengeance will be satisfied with their blood. ...Soon, their tarnished souls will be reaped from this world. This story is intended for mature (+18) readers only. Read at your own discretion.
