THE MANIFEST
By Darian Darkmind
"If you had seen what I've seen, if you could see what I see, you'd tear your eyes off your skull and feed them to ravens. I've killed, plundered and caused death through my actions. Feeling no remorse I've watched as my friends and enemies, their families, women and children are scorched alive. It takes more than strength to withstand what I've felt. My body may lay dead and my spirit might be broken, but only to be re-forged and reborn. Freed from humanity, driven to insanity, ones true strength, true power is measured by his will to do what must be done and faith to withstand what is necessary. And my will or faith can never be questioned.
I was taught only through fear can one truly be respected and only through his actions can one truly be feared. Mentored by the priests of the old, the strongest of their time I grew up to be quite a weapon. Sharp as a sword, strong as a mace and quick as a spear I stroke fear and death to my enemies and friends alike. All who stood between my faith and destiny soon fell to their knees begging for mercy, yet receiving none. I looked down upon the mortal men, the puny race lost within themselves, helplessly looking for a shepherd to lead them, to guide them somewhere safe. To lead them where, they never even asked.
The men were easily led. Meat, blood and bones they were worthless, each one of them. I sent them to death, wave after another only to see a handful ever returning. Only the strongest of them did. And even those were puny and weak when it came to having faith to our lord. They never understood.
I've been called a witch, a bitch, a prophet and a liar, a destroyer and a friend, a wolf in shepherd's clothes and a true leader. I've been called by many names and I've been praised a god amongst men. But I am not a god. I am but a mere mortal like those before me. I am but a piece of a puzzle, a soldier and a no one. Only my god can give me peace and raise me from this mortal plane of existence. Only my god may grant me immortality. Only my god can help me should he see me worthy.
All I've done is to measure myself. All I've done is to proof my worth. All I've killed is to test my faith. And those who have died have failed the test. I've praised his name and glory through my actions so one day he might notice me, his follower, a mere maggot. One day he may smile upon me and lay down his hand for me to take. To grant me his blessing and lead me away from this world, is the purpose of my war. One day only I shall remain.
For I am Darian Darkmind,
I am the chosen one,
And I will not be denied"
