Prologue:

Darkness that all I he could see. The Creature in front of him was made of it. Eyes more than could be counted that did not seem shine amongst the dark. He only had one left, one memory. His best memory. He had a choice to make use it to stop It or die with at least one thing worth living for.

He decided. A bright light appeared in his hands. A blade made love, happiness and what life was worth living for. Running the blade through the darkness, giving him a grip of something that had no form. It rage washed over him, bathing him in with anger, but it knew he was empty; this would hold It for a little while, then it would escape. Looking to his left he saw the Void. There was no way to describe in just words. Darker then the darkest black, yet with more colors then even the brightest rainbow. Grabbing the blade in hand as tight as he could, he jumped take them both to a place no life belongs.

The Void was cold as liquid nitrogen and hot as lava; it was all pains and it was nothing. The Void tore at them trying to erase them, remove them from this place. It, knowing the end was nie pulled on the young man’s life force and launched them forward. They slammed into something. It was like a sheet of rubber and jelly together. It drilled it way into this substance trying escape the void. Hate burned in his eyes, It could not be allowed to getting away. He follows, digging after It into this strange thing.

Just when he thought he was gone in the Void he was falling; there was light and he slammed into the ground with enough force to take his breath away. He looked up into a sun. The color where brighter and there was a strange energy about.

Memories started running through his head , all the memories that he had. His mind was looking for something to hold on to. Yet all there was, was pain. Darkness, Darkness like the very thing that he tried destroy. A storm like no other burst from his skin with a howl of rage….

In a place far from where he entered, four princesses of this land were startled from their slumber. Something had happened that sent reverberations into the core of Equis, unlike anything before. One had more than just a simple feeling for she had had a most curious dream. Such dreams were not a rare occurrence for her, they often helped her in a myriad of ways. This one though, she did not understand what the danger it warned her of even was or how she was supposed to respond to it. A letter came into being above her in a burst of green fire, a message from one of the others. Another of the princesses burst into the room, her navy form hard to see in the dark room.

“Sister, what must we do? This thing has managed to send us bodily out of the dreamscape.” The princess of the night trusted her sister and had found that she always knew what to do, so the next words to leave her sister’s lips shook her to her core.

“I do not know.”

Author's Note

Hello folks. Please don't tear me apart. First time publishing anything I have written. In future chapters I going to be using the authors note to answer any questions about the home universe of the Espers. It was originally a two book story that I was never able to bring myself to publish. So there a lot to it. If it's not spoilers then I can answer questions on it.
