Octavus

No matter how old or wise one became there was no escaping death. No hiding from his long reaching, clawing grasp; no matter how much you begged, pleaded or bargained; death would always come. It was the curse of mortality.

At least, that's how it was before the world changed.
Before they appeared and changed everything.

I was human, still vulnerable to death, to this new world; helpless in the face of adversity.

He had never been anything but a nightmare, even to the monsters of the new world.

I was destined for more than my mortality allowed.

He was the key to saving the remnants of humanity.

I was the catalyst to saving his soul.

We were destined for each other, in this world and the next.

War was approaching fast, the death toll rising each day.

Together we could stop it.

But we had to find her.

If only fate had been kinder.

Maybe we could stop it all.

Maybe we still can.
