Summary
MK wished for fickle things. Things like a new coat or a new pack of colouring pencils. And usually, he'd get them because they were easily attainable.
But what to do when bright sunlight is shunned from existence, not even its embers able to glow amidst the frost?
What to do when snow settles upon a landscape like a weighted blanket, crushing everything beneath it?
What to do when the one person who you thought could rival, has rivalled even buddha himself is chained inside a body that he could no longer control?
For MK, he ran.
Ran to all four corners based on a myth told years ago, his friends, and once enemies in tow, in hopes to free his mentor and the place they call home.
But you can only run for so long till the frost catches up and seeps through the cracks in your skin and into your bones, caulking your hopes and dreams with despair and nightmares.
Can only run for so long till you turn around to find all the ones who followed you have become victim to the one who fuels your nightmares, leaving you alone to tread amongst the bodies covered in verglas.
But hope is a fickle thing fuelled by desire.
And once that's gone, you fall
