Chapter 1 - THE END OF A DREAM

Alone in emptiness — where stars shine bright —the body reacts to the urge to run, far and far;the leg kicks off from nothing — a path which can't be seen.

"THE MAN" dashes toward something; in his left hand, he holds an orb."THE TRUTH" — glowing an alluring pink — conveys a weight that can't be felt.

The eyes wander: left — right, up — down... a sudden turn — left;a bizarre emerald lighter is lit — casting a comforting lime light.It cuts open the fabric of spacetime.Two steps taken back —a leap of FAITH across —the fabric stitches back up.

The eyes wander again:to the right — Yellow,to the left — Red.THE MAN dashes left — steady and fast.

The lighter is flicked.Again: a rip.Again: a leap of FAITH.The EYES wander once more...

To the left — Red.THE MAN dashes right — fast and faster.

REGRET fills the Heart — a sigh of FRUSTRATION and ANGER.The back is turned.The path followed is Red — back upward.

To the left — Red, to the right — Orange...The lighter is raised —along with Hope and a flicker of Relief.

It fades —with a breeze from the back.To tremble...to rush — away from Danger.

In the middle of the cosmos, two of the Great Entities meet — facing each other.

A mountain of a being — THE DESTRUCTION— soars above THE MAN. From his humongous ear hangs a earring of blank paper, dancing with the energy of the cosmos:

THEWISH.

Separating his lips, a ravine opens:

"WAIT — the path you take is not that of the selfless, but quite the contrary. Have a second thought about the power you hold — it is not mere force... it is THE FORCE."

"SHUT UP." The words from THE MAN split the stars.

"I know you well... Even if I wanted to believe you, this Verse shall not allow me to. Where you and I stand — there is no second thought. We are fated to rip out each other's hearts."

"Very well then."

THE DESTRUCTION, filled with sorrow, draws his heart. He transforms into a being of true Destruction.

THE MAN draws THE BLADE — enchanted with THE FORCE — clinging hard to his TRUTH.

An Epic unfolds — wavering the entire reality

As the end draws near — in favor of THE MAN —

"At last... can I now go fulfill my dream, my friend?"

"...Sorry."

THE DESTRUCTION looks down in shame — not for guilt he has committed, but for the one he is about to.

He plucks THE WISH and prays to it, incomplete:

"Summon.. THE CHAOS."

The blank paper reads the name of the new GREAT ENTITY. It burns bright and loud.

Arms in tangle, THE MAN hears a seductive voice in his right ear:

"Finally... be one with me."

A feminine figure brings him into her veil of poison — the strongest poison:

THE REGRET OF PAST.

The heart grows cold. The orb glows a faint pink. The eyes no longer wander.

An eternal rest.
