Fragment of a Blade
Description
It’s a world where blood spilled. Roar and cry echo, piercing in the night sky. And home, is a lost sanctuary. The only place to hide is the numbness inside the heart. Feeling nothing when there should be something. However, that’s what Kai feels, when he takes his sword from the ground, orange sky on top of his head, warm sunshine on his back.
Strong scent similar to copper surrounds him. But, he says nothing. Just watch where he step between the fallen bodies, and continue to walk. Feeling nothing as he do so, just numbness, darkness, nothing. Until that day comes again.

Kai doesn’t want to feel such an overwhelming emotion inside of him. Not again. He should feel nothing about anything, like he used to...
