The Fallen Hero

-----

Sol had ran for his life. His Mana was already at zero and his stamina was slowly decreasing. He could only think about the regret of having never spent more time with Elfina, Kireina, and the others as he was suddenly taken over by an enormous quantity of darkness…

"You're too powerful to simply kill you. How about you become my pawn instead?"

A smile surged in the lips of the monstrous entity that caught up to him, as darkness suddenly flowed into his body like he had never felt before. The darkness absorbed into his body and parasitized it, controlling his mind and his thoughts.

The memories of his past, of all his regrets, of all his pain, they all resurfaced, pain, agony, horror, regret, fear… All of it and more took over his mind and heart. His heart turned black, his armor completely stained with the darkness of his soul, and his eyes turned red, completely devoid of the emotions that made him the weakling that he, deep down, believed he was.
