The Chains of Life

And so Alkorm said unto his Brother:

"Rise, and receive your burden.

Rise, and wear this weight as a reminder of your duty.

Travel this world and make it so, that no man or beast or demon shall not know your name and your place.
Make it so, that the souls of those unfortunates find their way into the stars.
Make it so, that the balance is kept, for that is the way of the world."

And He Who Rides The Pale Horse rose and was weighed down.

He Who Rides The Pale Horse in colore

Of Faith and Chains

The Eternal Struggle

No one escapes, eventually we are all taken...

The Rags of Life

Rattle, rattle, 

something did chatter,
in hours much darker than dawn
Swift little feet

quietly fleet

over graves so freshly sown

So ragged, so tattered,
the eyes void of laughter,
silently set in pursuit
And those nimble feet
quicker doth fleet
lest they be caught by his roots
