The Void

Summary:

This work is nihilistic and existentially angsty by nature. Reader discretion is advised. This work will have an overarching story and is all connected. It will get better (both the situation and the quality of the story) as the story progresses. Tags will be updated as the work moves along. Updates are infrequent. Enjoy the story!

Chapter Text

Numb .  

I feel numb.  

No. That’s not it.  

 

There it is.  

I feel something.  

The frost is flowering over my fingers.  

I feel the bite of wind.  

It’s so cold that it’s almost…  

Warm.  

Like a fiery caress on my limbs.  

I don’t understand…  

…I don’t need to.  

I can’t see.  

My eyes won’t open.  

Or maybe they won’t close.  

It’s too bright.  

My eyes are burning.  

It’s getting hotter .  

My sight is frozen .  

Just like me.  

But the fire surrounding me says otherwise.  

‘Come’  

It beckons me.  

The whispers of flame are too loud.  

I want it to stop. 

I  

NEED  

EVERYTHING  

TO  

JUST  

STOP  

 

 

It’s quiet again.  

Maybe it’s better this way.  

Deep dark numbness seems to be better than scorching sunlight.  

Pure unknowing must be better than omniscience.  

Ignorance is bliss…  

Yes…  

…But numb and unknowing are different.  

Too much knowledge would lead to desensitization.  

More time will lead to more knowledge.  

In this state of nihility…  

…time will be plentiful.  

This place will be my residence.  

It will need to be called something.  

How about  

.
