Prologue (Journal Entry#1) This is my first entry My name is Co’el and I used to be human, but not anymore. I died two days ago saving a little girl from a demon. The war has been going on longer than I have been alive even longer than my sister has been alive. I still remember the days when I was little and my sister was raising me. . . The good days. Those days have long gone; now the days are fill with darkness and death. I started fighting in the war against the demons when I turned sixteen. My sister did not want me to fight even though she was already fighting in it. She sent me away so I would be safe but like most kids my age I’m rebellious, highly rebellious so I came back, picked up a weapon and started fighting. I have survived longer than most who have fought by my side. I was twenty years old when I died. Now I’m some kind of super- powered man. I don’t even look the same as I once did. I was used to seeing brown skin and brown eyes but now I’m seeing blue skin and blue eyes not to mention the long silver hair. This I will have to get used to but the power is something to glare at. I’m as strong as the council themselves and I can do so many other things. I could be writing all day just to describe them. Having these powers has also tipped the scales of the war: already a lot of demons have been sent to hell or have been killed. The word from the council is that the war is going to end soon but there is something that I fear when it ends. I have had secret meetings with the council; the talks have come down to me taking some new position. At first I thought they were going to ask me to join the council but they asked me to be something they called the Grim Reaper. This position requires me to keep the balance of life and death in the world. Since the war it’s been screwed up and being this Reaper would change my whole life. My dreams of having a normal life after the war is going to be gone; I knew that I would have to give up a lot of things when I started fighting but the only thing that kept me going was the fact that everything was going to better in the future. I was going to settle down and find a wife and have children but that dream is now gone since I’m immortal. I don’t know all the details about this Reaper position but I know that it will consume my whole life. My sister always said that there’s no guarantees in life so I guess that maybe if I try hard enough this position will not consume my life and of course I’m highly rebellious. I can now hear the fighting getting closer to our camp and pretty soon the council will call for me to join the fight. This might be the last battle in this war at least I hope it will be. I want to see what my new life will be after the war and what it will show. Maybe I can still have the dream that I wanted, maybe I can still have a wife and son.
