Chapter 1: Fears
(by Eleanor, added on 23 September 2012 01:48 PM)

I am afraid of the emptiness around me. Deathly afraid. When I am left alone, I do not know what to do. It closes in on me, the close darkness. And I can feel shapes in it, evil spirits. They will come for me, they will burn me alive. I can feel it in my bones, I can hear it in my ears. They whisper out to me, hissing sinister and poisonous words only I can hear. People I meet presume me mad. Maybe I am, I do not know. But there was a time the terrors themselves came for me. A time I was left alone, to fend for myself. That fateful day I have not forgotten.

Chapter 2: Darkness
(by Eleanor, added on 21 July 2013 10:48 AM)

A weight still pushes downwards, ever downwards. It is like a time bomb, ticking, ticking as time draggs ever onwards. I am scared. I am terrified.
Locked in this room, with only four walls, not the barest hint of light. I should have listened to my proverbs, in the barest sense. Nothing but stone; I feel. Nothing but dust; I breathe. I am scared. I am terrified.
The Terrors are black, shapeless, but still there. I can feel them, as much as you may feel a wind that brushes by your face, as much as you may hear a scream in the darkness. Screams. All around. Perhaps I am imagining them, perhaps not. Who can tell? For, I have been shut out here for goodness knows how long. Days do not matter any longer. Days are meaningless; so meaningless. As meaningless as my name is now. Evriala, perhaps that is a good name for me now. Evriala. Evriala. But why, why, why, why? It is not for me to decide. Terrors...Terrors...I did nothing wrong. Oh Lord. Oh Lord.
Won't someone help me? Please? I am Evriala. I am the Tide, the Winds! Help! Help!
