What does it take to be Mighty? Strength? Authority? Wealth?

A GodKing would think he had it all and more. Then, the universe laughs and rips the things that matter most out of his hands.

What does one do then?

Follow Godfrey, as he makes sense of who he wants to be, in a universe far larger and more brutal than he knows.

*Warning: It will be quite fast paced at the start. It will slow down after the first volume.

Dialogue notes:

"Godfrey" -> spoken out loud
'Godfrey' -> internal thoughts

THE MIGHTY GODFREY

Ruins can often times give off a feeling of power and perseverance. It isn't unusual for the remnant strength of a civilization to linger, as if to say "we were here, and we lived". For some, it is an incredible phenomenon. For the former ruler of a once great kingdom, it is a reminder of all the things he could not do.

Godfrey walks along the roads, once lined with merchants, children, and festivities, that is now lifeless. He makes it to the city square where once his wife performed for the people on a stage. A sweet melody tries to enter his mind, but is drowned out by the deafening silence.

A Guqin remains on top of the stage. Its elegance unaltered by the events that transpired. He picks it up and plucks a string. The sound echoes throughout the kingdom, as if to signify that everything is over.
