Almost Lost My Spoons
Let's Write! Daily Findings

Here are my findings for the first prompt:

“I will be a mad boy with my evil lanterns that smile and my goblets of gold. I will be a man worthy of history but selfishly keeping all secrets to myself. I will not submit to the chaos of the Order and will be remembered as simply a hero. My duties to serve the new king will be forgotten; all that shall be remembered in fear is my name. All is wish is for the new king to rule unchecked and unchallenged by those who consider themselves unjustly righteous. It doesn’t matter if my goblets of gold gather dust and cobwebs of silk or my evil lanterns’ smiles turn cold. As long as my king is ruling, I have no greater wish.”

“No greater wish?” Nigai asked. “You wish to serve our king, but have nothing greater in sight? You don’t want to lead our new king to a path of new justice? You don’t wish to stay by our kings’ side and continue working in the shadows, keeping him from harm? ‘Cause that’s what you do; you protect our king from the shadows. I doubt you’ll get higher praise than that.”

Akachi sighed. After a while, he spoke. “As long as I tell myself that I couldn’t be happier, my thoughts won’t keep spinning.”

“Spinning?” asked Nigai.

Akachi nodded, though with little enthusiasm. This was one of the reasons he didn’t like interacting with other General besides Dou’gal, Ketzi’ah or Urd; they just didn’t seem to get it.

Nigai’s look asked him to explain further, but Akachi did not. He just stared at the horizon as though he wanted to tame it; a glare in his eyes and a scowl on his face.


Tomorrow I will post about the planning stages of building a character.

Thanks and have a pleasant day!
