Bound by Darkness

• Signed

They say loss gets easier with time, but it was all a lie.

Loss eats away at your happiness until you are left a shell of your former self, wishing for the life you once had.

Escaping the darkness of my home was one thing, but leaving him behind was another.

It forced me to build an impenetrable wall, keeping everyone at arm's length to avoid the pain of losing someone else.

For years I mourned him, his existence all but wiped from the earth once I left. My regular searches coming up blank every single time.

Until fate decided to lure him from the shadows one night, crossing our paths in a way that would change the trajectory of my life forever.

The encounter pushed me into a world I knew nothing about. One filled with beings that are not supposed to exist, and secrets that could potentially ruin me.
