Let Death Not Take Thee

Description

Hyesung lives only to fulfill one purpose: to slay The Accursed One, Sorcerer Lee Sunho.

Foreword

Hyesung woke up to the sound of crickets chirping.

He’s in a grassy field, the gentle night breeze running through the blades of grass and tickling his nose. Hyesung noticed first the stars in the dark sky up above, then the wan moon, three-fourths in completion. It was while looking at the vast expanse of the night sky that Hyesung realized that he remembered nothing. Not how he got here, not who he was, not where he was—nothing.

He only knew two things and two things only.

Firstly, his name: Hyesung.

Secondly, he had a mission. It was a mission to kill The Accursed One, Sorcerer Lee Sunho.

Hyesung did not know what this sorcerer looked like, only his name, his title. He didn’t know where to find him, he didn’t know why he had to slay this person, but it was his mission. His purpose even. The only thing he could hold onto other than his own name in the emptiness of his blank mind.

 

So Hyesung got up, looked at the sky once more in goodbye, and began a long journey to fulfill his mission.

 


 

WARNING: This fic contains MAJOR CHARACTER DEATHS and end-game SyungDy despite the fact that you could either ship Hyesung with the other guys or see all of their interactions as completely platonic and brotherly. If you're not into seeing deaths or SyungDy why are you not into syungdy and can't stand to read about them, however little their interactions, then this fic is not for you. If you're fine with both deaths and SyungDy, then please carry on.

 

A/N:

Welcome to the SyungDy fic that I planned to be something but ended up being something else entirely. In fact, we don't even get much SyungDy action, everything remains pretty ninja and you can even ship Hyesung with the other guys and it makes just as much sense. Should I even label this as SyungDy? Yes? No? I don't really know, but I don't exactly feel comfortable labelling this as SyungDy considering it's not at all solely focused on SyungDy.

Anyways, enjoy this (not so) little kind of SyungDy fic that I'm actually super proud of. If you want to know where I got the inspiration for this from, I got it from Ga1ahad and Scientific Witchery by Mili. I have a burning love for project Mili's songs, but this has got to be my favorite from them so far. However, I can tell you that since I don't fully understand the story from the lyrics, this fic is not at all based on the song.

Chapter 1: This is fantastic!! It has the feel of an adventure game too with the quest and finding friends and I especially like how you describe their settings naturally!

Chapter 1: Tbh, im not really into fantasy kind of fic tho i DO love the way you write this story.. i mean, the language is so...DAMN!! You using the not commonly used words makes the fanfic sound archaic which is somehow suitable for sorcerers themed fanfic. It's almost like reading a poem, really, especially the hyesung's dreams part.
Thanks for sharing the fic!
