When Echelon's mind plays tricks on him in the night he asks his father about the monsters that lurk in the darkness. Fleethoof explains the truth about monsters and where they really hide. And even though we try to lock them away they will still always struggle and fight to get out.
This short story was written with permission from Dusk Quill, a writer who inspired me to express my creativity in honor of his fantastic works of literature. All characters belong to him. This story does not reflect any canon spoilers or future ideas on his behalf. This is entirely my own creation.
Reading his Skyfall Series before will give you more info about the characters but can be read alone as a slice of life story.
This story is meant to show how even though we leave the battlefield the battlefield will never leave us. Also that we must be two different people in one body in order to function in battle and at home.
