The Dusk of the Last Day

I watched the Academy from the rooftops, the faint glow of torches and the soft murmur of students below meandering across campus, enjoying their final moments as students of the Academy. Some of them would actually be spending their last day here, as they were to graduate soon, while others were enjoying time with their seniors before having to bid them adieu. It nearly felt natural, it felt like once tomorrow had ended, we could find some sense of normalcy in the world.

Unfortunately, as I knew better than most, peace was a fragile thing. I wasn't foolish enough to believe in it anymore. I lost Mara, I lost my original body, I struggled with Garret, and if we were going far back enough, I lost my old life and the world I knew as home. Everything was gone to me, but I still had to press on. For the sake of my new home, for the sake of my new love, I had to continue my mission.
