Keeper Of Stories

Chapter 2 First Story

"frm? you mean from?" Silch corrects the voice.

" no-t Mch time- Open book qiu-k

Silch doesn't considers the danger and rushes towards the book, he touches the cover and opens it. Then as he looks at the pages he sees the pages there is 1 sentence and the letters are in the Belcium language, The words say "The clueless creature enters 'Omniscience's Tomb' and enters .....".

As he was reading the sentence the book closes before he could dully read it.

"What did you see in me" The voice asks.

"You're back?, I saw a sentence which was written in the language of my county. It said..." as he was opening his mouth to speak, no words came out of his mouth. "I cant say it, Something wont allow me"

" As i thought, forget about it. Now i guess i have some explaining to do. First, give me a name" The voice asks Silch.

"I wont" Silch replies without any expression. "Explain what is happening".

The voice then says " You are interesting, You are called here as you learned 'It' which i do not know myself, I do not know what i am, The purpose of my existence is to provide knowledge to you of your job, I am this book". 

Silch then looks at the grand Library and says " You said this library contains stories that have no end so what is considered an 'end'?" Silch understood that a story is any story, so it can be a story of when i imagined my self reading that book i wanted, i can be that book it self, it can be the story in that book, that story of that book of its formation to its end, possibilities are stories, Imagination forms stories, fiction is a story, reality is stories. So there are infinite number of stories, but what is considered it end, is it when all the characters are satisfied, when the reader is satisfied, who is the reader?.

"Its simple, a story which has an end is a story that is not in this library" The voice says with a bit of humor in its tone.

Silch wanted to slap himself at that moment. "Tell me what is an end" Silch said with a bit of anger.

"An end of a story is the death of what the story is about, what is represents and what it revolves around" the voice said as he waits for Silch to question him more.

Silch doesn't agree with the voice as he believes that the 'End' of a story is not when the story's representation or what it revolves around to die, as what if the story revolves around something that cant have death?.

"What is death then?" Silch askes to learn more.

"Death means the absolute death, as in death of the concept" The Voice answers.

"Death of the concept? what does that mean?" Silch askes the voice with confutation.

If Silch could see the voice, he would have definitely see it sighing. "death of the concept means the death of its existence, if the concept of something dies, then it would be removed the memory of what it left, an example if my concept dies then you wouldn't remember my existence, when the concept dies, it would also be removed from time and fate. So in the same scenario, i wouldn't exist, never have existed and my existence didn't mean anything as it wasn't fated for anything., but the end doesn't mean the death of the concept, but as death in the way you would understand as in the death of it body and the end of life".

Silch understands the 'Death of the concept' he wonders why the voice told him about that as was not the end he asked about.

Silch finally asks the Voice "What is my job".

The voice doesn't respond for a while and then says "Every book in this library is a story without end and you must end them'.
