The unpredictability of smoke..

It twists and turns, dances and grows, shrinks and dies...

The smoke covers the truth, merely a mirage of hope. 
But soon enough, the smoke succumbs to its quick demise,
and that's when reality is uncovered. 

I always knew life seemed too simple, too perfect even. Perhaps humanity's largest flaw is remaining cursed with egocentrism.
How could we have been so foolish?
How could we have been so blind? 
So far from the truth? 

At least the smoke smothering my eyes has now died down, no matter the brutal, gory and dark reality it has kept hidden from me.


I finally know the truth.

Echoes of Balance and Flame by er782568
43 parts Ongoing Mature
Amara Valestra's life is anything but simple. Trapped in the heart of Malrathis, her powers suppressed by dark, painful restraints, she finds herself caught between two worlds-one she was born into and one she cannot escape. The fire that once burned so brightly within her now smolders, contained by chains of power she can barely comprehend. When a haunting dream reveals the deep, ancient forces that control her fate-forces of fire, healing, and a delicate balance between light and shadow - Amara is left with more questions than answers.. The marks she woke up with, etched into her skin, pulse with power, as though calling to something deeper inside her. The dream is a warning, a glimpse into the dangerous path she must walk to prevent the breaking of the world. With Kaelith's obsession growing, Amara must fight against more than just her captor's manipulations. Her own inner turmoil threatens to consume her, and the choice between love, freedom, and power becomes an impossible one. As her fire begins to burn once more, so too does the knowledge of the devastating consequences it could unleash-both for her and for the fragile balance of the realms. But her past isn't easy to leave behind. Calder, the one she chose to save over herself, lingers in her mind. Though she can't shake the memories of him-his touch, his kindness, the bond they share-he is far from her reach. As her inner fire begins to ignite again, their reunion may be the catalyst for something far greater than either of them could anticipate. As the balance between light and dark shifts, Amara must make a choice that will affect not only her fate but the fate of all realms. The flames inside her burn brighter than ever-but the question is, will they destroy everything, or will they save the world from the shadows that threaten to consume it?

"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you." "You'd probably burn." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐘 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎, the reaper. He's a prick. An asshole. A pretentious son of a bitch. He's not perfect. He's not even decent. But he's hers.

She's known to be the perfect good girl, with perfect grades and a perfect life with a perfect family. They didn't know that behind the gated doors of their billion dollar estate, she was strapped down to a chair every night and picked apart just to be put back together in time for supper. 𓆩♡𓆪 star-crossed; adjective (of a person or a plan) thwarted by bad luck.
