Lingering Regrets

Strong gusts of wind hit his body as Elric was partially in a trance while affirming his resolve to jump down from the edge. The worst day of his life had broken his will to live and give up on everything as a living human being. 

Step! 

And finally, with a loud step, he stood over the ledge and looked down below at the street and the bustling crowd. 

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes as a cold breeze trickled on his face, speaking in a depressed voice… 

"Man, what a pathetic life it was".

However, unlike the last time in his story… an anomaly occurred. 

"It's not worth it." spoke a man in black and blue longcoat attire of nobility and a warrior mixed together. 

"She wasn't worth it." he spoke in a solemn voice. 

"Your family wasn't worth it." he walked forth and stood behind Elric who was still on the ledge.
