    Yeah, Discord is totally not on my history…. neither is Sword Art Online or some random dragon-making game…. *nervous laughter*

    As for POV–I want the feel to be dark, and slightly cynical, so… I’m still working on that. It shouldn’t be to hard, considering how cynical I usually am… hehe…

    And I’ve changed the last sentence also, here’s a new look at what this piece looks like as a prologue:

    The day will come when you will learn what you were born for. Whether you will rise to fame and fortune—or fall to utter darkness. It may not come until the day you die, or it may come when you are thirteen and break you.

    But only one thing is for certain.

    It will come.

    Sometimes it comes gently. Like a breeze in the summer, or a deep green pool in the forest.

    Other times, it doesn’t. It seizes you at fifteen, and throws you roughly into the world of knives and blood, of warfare and violence. Some survive. Some do not.

    This is the story of one who did.

    So…. yeah. Same thing, just different last line. And italics. What do you think of that as a short prologue before the actually first chapter? *storms off to think up new first line* *realizes last first line took a year to think up* *despair*
