The Court of Souls?

Summary:

~“How about a story?”~

Fine by me. Which story? Hopefully a good one.

~“There was once a lonely child in a world filled with myths, gods and demons. Only power counted there and the weak were worse than cattle. A world where survival of the fittest ruled.”~

Was it strong then?

~“No, but the child had a power. One that made him stand between light and darkness. Nothing could escape him, so he was shunned by his people.”~ What did he do? Did he fight his fate? Did he hide his power? What was it?

~“Oh, he fought. He fought a lot. And no thing could escape his power. It was something that everyone had to live with.”~

So he became a hero and changed the world?

~»…”~

Tell me.

~“Nooo, that’s not how the story goes. This isn’t a story of a noble man, doing good amidst a sea of monsters. This is a story of a demon who was… kinder than the rest.”~

A kind demon? How boring.

~“I think it would be better if I tell the story, so you can judge for yourself.”~

So tell the story!
