The night was surprisingly quiet for the wild planet as it seemed as though its beasts slept soundly. However, while the planet slept something new and far more dangerous had found its way into the shadows. Prowling through the darkness of the massive wilds that seemed to encompass the planet, black orbs stared blankly ahead as the lithe figure moved deeper and deeper into the choking wilds. Any and all beasts that might be roaming the night fled before her, the Darkness rolling off her in waves easily felt by the creatures as their survival instincts took hold.Stepping from the thick forest she stepped out into a wide plain, the grass short as though a large herd of herbivores had recently passed through. Moving slowly she found her onyx gaze moving to the stars above, the souls trapped within her momentarily stilling as a strange sensation washed over her. Only a few weeks ago she had died at the hands of Moridin, but in a moment of clarity he had brought her back to the world of the living. He had gifted her with some of the souls that she had unknowingly aided him in stealing to reshape his body over four hundred years ago. However, something was amiss. He had brought her back wrong.
Her breathing slowed as a chill raced up her spine, a strange sensation tickling the back of her mind. Someone was coming, someone familiar, but her mind was being pulled in to many directions to make sense of the sensation. The light of the stars and moons were swallowed by her inky gaze, the wind shifting around her as soft music reached her ears. For a moment her eyes slid closed as she found herself singing, manipulating the world around her as music echoed across the plain.
"My hope is on fire
My dreams are for sale
I dance on a wire
I don't want to fail her
I walk against the stream
Far from what I believe in
I run towards towards the end
Trying not to give in
She's lost in the darkness
Fading away
I'm still around here
Screaming her name
She's haunting my dreamworld
Trying to survive
My heart is frozen
I'm losing my mind
Help me, I'm buried alive
Buried alive"
My dreams are for sale
I dance on a wire
I don't want to fail her
I walk against the stream
Far from what I believe in
I run towards towards the end
Trying not to give in
She's lost in the darkness
Fading away
I'm still around here
Screaming her name
She's haunting my dreamworld
Trying to survive
My heart is frozen
I'm losing my mind
Help me, I'm buried alive
Buried alive"
As her voice gained strength, her eyes opened once more and for a moment they were amber. Her molten gaze burned brightly, but black slowly bled back into her gaze, swallowing the light until nothing remained."I'm burning the bridges
And there's no return
I'm trying to reach her
I feel that she yearns
I walk against the stream
Far from what I believe in
I run towards towards the end
Trying not to give in
She's lost in the darkness
Fading away
I'm still around here
Screaming her name
She's haunting my dreamworld
Trying to survive
My heart is frozen
I'm losing my mind
Help me, I'm buried alive
Buried alive
I tried to revive what's already drowned
They think I'm a fool
Can't realize,
Hope plays a wicked game with the mind
'Cause I thought that love would bind
I cannot revive what's already drowned
She won't come around
She's lost in the darkness
Fading away
I'm still around here
Screaming her name
She's haunting my dreamworld
Trying to survive
My heart is frozen
I'm losing my mind
Help me, I'm buried alive
Buried alive"
She hadn't planned upon singing as was her want, something else had compelled the act. However, the Song shook her to the core and caused her to wrap her arms around herself, her aura pulsing in time with her slow rhythmic heartbeat. Was her subconscious mind reaching out to her or was it the Force?
