Description He fell to his knees, his cloak billowing in the raging wind and snow. His eyes naught on the things around him, but on the glorious figure before him.

Blood seeped past his clothing and onto him. It burned. His life before him, broken, destroyed and bleeding.

Dead.

Silently, he raised his hand before him and a bright flash of light bloomed. Brilliant, glorious, beautiful. Within it formed a crystal lily, and although beautiful, seemed sad and corrupt with the surrounding storm. Blood from his fingers smeared over it as sorrow filled him. Visions of a small girl dancing in a meadow laughing, a boy laughing with her as she placed something in her hair. Laughter only saved for her.

It had lost its meaning.

He placed the lily in her hair and gathered her into his arms as the darkness swarmed around him. He cried tearlessly over his life, his apologies lost with the raging wind.

And then the iced land was empty. Never again would he smile.

No longer would he be able to live.

He would wait. And he would wait for them to come for him, the fools that they were. They would be the cause of their inevitable destruction.

He would never see her smile again. They were both gone.

The days grew ever darker.

Something from Project FALL. It's our favourite dark haired man! Yaaaaayyy.

That's a really loose depiction of how I wrote that scene, which wont ever actually appear. I'll go back and edit it when I have my draft in front of me.

baaaw that's just so...SAD. very well done but ,if you don't mind my saying so, the picture is just a tad on the elaborate side, but I still like it it's also a tad on the dark side which makes it a bit difficult to see some of the detail...bawww that's just so sad I may actually cry, and it takes a lot to make me cry...that's also the mark of a job well done if that's what you were going for

Yea, I agree that it's too chaotic. But it's supposed to be dark, that smoke and darkness should be melded to him. I have a version where you can see the detail (isn't much) but this one looked better.

Lol, yea, it's sad. Possibly one of the most depressing parts in the book...but it's all background plot and the actual scene will not be written

I figured it was mostly intentional and adds a certain effect...

Yea. It's dark, mysterious...and also sad? His expression seems fitting.

Oh, yea. I wasn't even going to refer to "her/she" in the writing, but saw no way around it.
