Raven of Mystic: Chapter Two by Scott UtleyThe silver moon abruptly turned crimson; a bloody gluttonous mass of a billion
fractured souls. She just as suddenly turned black. And verily, I say unto you my
child, the earth fell violently down upon its southern heavenly side.
She managed to keep the beast of survival within alive whilst the sun continued its
circumventing her trembling orb of azure. Without effort, the sun fixed its
rays upon the throat of a startled horizon. Even this cataclysmic, brutal, failure
of our planet's axis to remain at the atlantian degree, barely caused a shrug. But seismic
interventions of the first kind are not enough to stop us all from spinning faster,
wider, and with perpetually extreme kinetic dynamism well on our way to a date with some cosmic
astrolabes destiny. I awoke with a feverish chill. I felt besieged by a profound,
unsettling sense of loss. I could not comprehend why an impersonal God would feel
compelled to crush everything and everyone I love with a butcher's detached
indifference? Innocence and ignorance left me feeling raped by a devastating
penetration into the labyrinth of an infant's precariously feeble contentment. Oh,
and feeble I was! For the world I left behind was but a remnant of the atlantian age. My
spirit's temple had been strategically infected by black dragons summoned by my
newly christened step-mother-queen, Raven of Mystic. Dragoned toothed jaws pierced the
membrane of my soul with manipulating hallucinations and fire magic. My entire world was
galvanized with horror by an undeniable sense of betrayal. Barely a child without
the resources of an ageless eternity, I lay helpless. My gifts had yet to developed
so all I could do was scream inside my fragile heart. I gradually lost consciousness
once again, however, before oblivions repose, I recalled a fading, stinging mist descend upon this
maligned world. A sphere thrust against my heart's devout wishes and grand
ambitions. This was truly a venomous kingdom which the elders of the G. W.
Brotherhood of the Holy Rosicrucians had prophesized well before the
present year, anno domini 1666, I would someday rule over, as lord, as King,
mightiest of the mighty, holiest of holy, and Savior of Jerusalem.
