The sun rose on the barren landscape, the rocks reflected the toughness of the world, dead trees revealed the sorrow that has always filled it. “Things like this fill the void of the outside world.” that’s what Urzza said.
“I know, but cant we do something about it?”
She shook her head to me, “The only way would be to go back to where it began.” She sat on a large rock, “ To where the shadowed land’s became shadowed.”

Maybe I should start the story from the start, then I came to this world. I came to this world in a dream, one that seam’s to still be a dream, of a world that once was vibrant and lush, full of life and happiness, but now its not, a man thousands of years ago stumbled across a forgotten continent and opened what I could only describe as a Pandora’s box, How about I start at the beginning of this dream, so that you all will understand this world a little better.

It was my eleventh year of high school, I was sixteen going on seventeen come august, the winter that year was harsh and cold, the air stung my skin and the sky always seemed to be cloudy. I never really applied myself that much to school, other then art. I had always imagined other worlds and people, until that one night, when I crawled into bed and drifted to sleep.


Part 1

I felt warm, like it was summer, a warm room? I was never aloud heat in my room. I opened my eyes slowly to seeing two people looking back at me in what was obviously not my room, the room seemed to be covered with metal walls, glass, and lots of mirrors scattered the room. The couple looking back at me where a girl and guy, the guy had short blond hair, his eyes where blue, he wore casual clothing, he reminded me of a friend I knew. The girl, she shared a similar face to someone who was extremely close to me, her hair was orange and her eye color changed in the flickers of the candle light.
“It looks like he’s awake hunny.” She said putting her arms around the boy who seemed nearing his eighteen’s.
“Yeah seam’s like it” he said as if it wasn’t apparent that I was, “You awake sleepily head?!” he joked
“oh play nice.” The girl said slapping the boy upside the head, “ so do you remember what happened to you before now?” she asked.
I was somewhat choked to speak, it felt odd, I felt like I had been kidnapped. “I crawled into bed and woke up in here!” I shouted as if to blame the couple for the change in scenery.
“he must have been hit on he head pretty hard by something, don’t you think?” the boy said.
“maybe we should let him rest a little, he’s still pretty beat up.” She turned and smiled to me, “ my apologizes, my name is Natsuma.” She made soothing similar to a curtsy but also put her knuckles together. Natsuma slapped the boy, “don’t be rude! Tell him your name!” she commanded him.
“Its Hiad” he said making a bow but doing the same with his knuckles.
“Are you hungry?” Natsuma asked, “ you have been healing from whatever went on for two days strait, with no food.”
I felt my stomach rumble at the sound of food,” y-yes please.” I stuttered, then tried to sit up, but failed in pain.
“please be careful, your not fully healed.” Natsuma helped me sit up.
“hey I’m going to go check to see if I can find out how he got so beaten up, our people shouldn’t be violent too each other.” Haid said leaving the room.
“people?” I asked puzzled.
“you did really get hit on the head didn’t you.” She chuckled, “ Haid and I are the rulers of this city, the city of Anterez” she smiled, “I’ll go make you some soup.” Nastsuma left the room and shouted back, “save your strength for healing! Not walking!”
I was so afraid, but something about Natsuma soothed me, like the girl she seemed to resemble did.
