{Forgotten Stranger In Lands of Wisps}
The final section.
Emir stepped forward.
He had entered that place.
A land untouched by time, where the air shimmered with the glow of unseen spirits. Wisps danced in the twilight, whispering nightmares.
A place that wasn't meant to be reached.
Yet here he was.
Here, he would be forgotten.
Here, he would disappear.
{The Heavens Wept}It rained.
Of course it rained.
The sky itself mourned him.
At Emir's funeral, they came one by one.
Some spoke. Some couldn't.
Lily clawed at his casket, fingers bleeding, nails cracking, begging for him to come back.
Laura just stared.
At nothing.
Her puffy, swollen eyes said enough.
She had cried herself to sleep every night.
When everyone left, Laura stayed.
She knelt beside where his head should have been.
And she kissed the ground.
