I seek the dark

That they all fear

But one must search

One must find the dark

To explore it

It shall be me

Or perhaps

An Expeditioner

One who must explore

Beyond us

I shall find it

I shall find the darkness

Who we all fear

So I’ll go

Beyond

Into the Outer Zone

Where no one’s been before

I’ll walk and walk

All alone

Til’ _she_ comes upon me

She’s Rayzea

Red hair

Slim figure

A common

Like me

One of the Seekers

Who seek the darkness

One who isn’t scared of it

We walk and walk

And talk and talk

Into the unknown

Not knowing what to expect

Til’ _he_ comes upon us

He is Aizrai

Dark eyes

He looks tough

A Drifter

We all walk and walk

And talk and talk

Til’ we see it

The dark

Standing in front of us

There’s people covering it

Vanguards

Seekers like us

And Sentries

We sneak

Into the dark

Only to be blinded by it

I see nothing

Yet continue

Into the dark

A hand on my shoulder

Whose hand?

Rayzea’s?

Aizrai’s?

Or a Hidden’s?

I ran

Farther towards the dark

Rayzea’s scream pierced the air

Cracked the dark

A sliver of light became

Her scream got cut off

And she was gone…

I’d lost Aizrai

He’d lost me

I followed the sliver

From Rayzea’s shriek

And I began to see again

But differently

I saw color

Something I’ve never seen

Ever

And there it was

A Hidden

Staring into my soul

I held my hand out

To touch it

But it ran

Faster than anything I’ve seen

Aizrai

Where was he?

I searched and searched

Only to find his food pack

On the blue rock

Tears fell

I was alone

Again

There was no escape

Or was there?

Brightness came inside

And filled my soul

A group

They found me

They took me

To save me

From dark

I made it out

Alive
