Synopsis
Dreaming of the future isn't as awesome as it may sound. Dreams are complicated, abstract, and unpredictable. It's best to forget them and live life without fretting their ciphers and mysticism. This is something Emeri has learned over the years. However, his belief is put into question when he continuously dreams of imminent death and destruction upon returning to his hometown with some friends. Going up against fate isn't easy. All magic has a price, and seeing is just the beginning. ________________________________________________________________ Chapters will either have musical or poetic inspiration.

Chapter 1 - Prologue

Lingering smoke wafts[1] about the dead air; the night deep with candlelit shadows cast about. A groaning scream begs as the moments echo. Gore spills at skyclad[2] feet, bleeding into the earth.

A muted cry resonates.[3]

"This wasn't supposed to happen," promises a quivering[4] girl. "Why?" Tearful, she chokes, "I don't-... I'm so sorry."

"It's not your fault." A stained smile extends, "We all chose this."

"Really now?" Speaks a cold indifference, "This should come as no surprise. You know the rules."

"How can you be so heartless?" Questions the girl, heavy with anguish[5] and woe.[6]

"It can't be helped. There's no use in crying."

Laced[7] with spite,[8] "You better be right."

"No one's 'right'."
