Darkness. The ultimate ruler, the true One-Above-All. Everything starts from it, and everything returns to it eventually. People say that in your final moments, darkness seeps in your very existence, engulfs your whole being. They say it’s an incredibly relaxing feeling that takes you on your journey to your afterlife. They say that in the very darkness, the ‘nothingness’ your weary soul will finally be able to rest and relax. This brings up some very philosophical and existential questions. Do you even exist?

Follow the epic journey of Aiden, the last primal, a unique and ancient race as he finds his place in a strange, new world, filled with threats and violence.

This story (and the world itself) is something I started writing and creating 15 years ago, while I was telling stories with my friends in our regular D&D sessions. The world is a hand-crafted fantasy world, filled with history and lore that we created over the course of years. While I may be new to the writing scene, I will do my very best to bring you an enjoyable experience. 

Hope you enjoy the journey just as much as I enjoyed creating it.

The Last Primal

Just as Aiden expected, his words caused the mood of their friends to drop by a huge margin. He could only sigh at this, and just stay in silence, awaiting some sort of response from them. While Mary wasn't happy, she still took the news slightly better than Cole.

"Aiden… Was this the topic of discussion on your meeting yesterday with the Examiner's Leader?" She asked, with a compassionate but slightly worried smile on her face.

To respond, Aiden silently nodded, before turning his attention towards his friend, who looked as if he saw a ghost just a moment ago.

"W-why?" Was the only thing he managed to blurt out after several seconds of effort. Is he still not strong enough? Is he still holding him back? He did just rank up, was this still not enough? What more does he need to qualify to stand and face the dangers together with his friend?
