Chapter 781 - Shared Silence

I walk yet I do not know my path.

I stride yet this body fail me time and time again.

I yearn. . . though I cannot name the thing I desire.

Syrion. That is my name.

Not one of my choosing but one bestowed upon me by the one that lurks below.

A pawn of potential.

That's what I am.

A piece that can reach the end and be promoted. To the rank of Lord.

But is that what I seek? To become stronger?

I gaze towards the face of my blade, my reflection staring back at me upon its steel.

I lift my helmet and see the bundle of energy within.

Ah. . . I am neither dead nor alive.

Every time I think of the pursuit of strength, I feel a sense of desperation. Of longing.

He takes over every now and then, walks towards a direction in search of a home.

I will join him on this journey, a journey leading to a warmth that I am not familiar with.

But with that warmth comes a suffocating coldness.
