    I know nothing of the game, but I like that I didn't need to! Nicely written!

    Wow. This was absolutely heart-wrenching. And the worst part is that you're absolutely right, this is really the way it goes. I really liked the ending, how he removes his healing ring so that he can finally find peace. Nobody thinks about how awful it is to be a puppet who has little choice but to do as he's told. And especially after such a tragic, disappointing finale in the game, you can't seriously expect them to actually want to keep on living.

    An amazing reading, profound and touching.

    It sounds like the heroine/hero has only been getting the short end of the stick for so long, especially when the hope of friendship ended in betrayal, mixed messages. Being forced to fight "him" for his wrongs and then being saved by him, a last act of true kindness, really stings. He did care after all, but now it's too late and there's no one reliable left. (Since "she" is incompetent and probably worse.)

    The fourteen statements build up on the previous ones beautifully, slowly drawing me in to the protagonist's pain. Then the final paragraph makes sense, even if one more great loss seems senseless.

    Wow - it makes me think about all the people who try and take on the quests and fail. I guess generally the real person has to have a huge helping of luck and fated destiny to complete all the challenges, and most who try would end up like that, bleeding out in a cave. Brilliantly done.

    Gods, I love this one. It's so very powerful, with those few stark sentences summing up a world of hurt and pain... Just magnificent!

    And welcome to the prompts...they are addicting...
