Death’s Guide To Life
Chapter 1
Introduction
Life was a strange strange thing
She was always so indecisive, never knowing what to do, what to say or how to act
I guess that was why I was there
Not to say that I was ever very helpful in any situation she was trying to sort through
“It can’t be that hard,” I chuckled at her as she glared at me in a way she thought intimidating (which it wasn’t but I never wanted to tell her that) “let me have a try”
I reached forward only for her to slap my hand away that glare of hers still fixated in place
“Aster,” her tone was warning and firm before softening “you know that’s not how this works, you destroy, I create”
“Oh” there was nothing I could say after that so I sat back and watched her work
She made such a complicated process seem so easy, nurturing the earth beneath her triggering it to flourish with life
She pulsed with concentration
her eyes growing iridescent as she lost herself in her work, her amber hair levitating around her face reaching down towards the ground like anchient tree roots
She was beautiful
But.... but I’d never tell her that
