You were above all,

High above,

High above this city.

So far up,

Nobody could see you anymore.

The sun disappears from sight,

The moon welcomes me....

You see, reality works in a variety of ways, and many a time one is simply mistaken in many ways. This very reality shin...

Here, they could not see me.

Here, they could not hurt me.

I could vaguely see black shapes roaming the barren city and hear the occasional scream. On this cliff, however, nothing but the crisp, cold air could touch me, not even Revenants.
