Loose ends, burnt threads and unspoken words (PK)

Life is like a spool of thread, a roll of fabric, a ball of wool. A legacy is what you make with it. Through thick and thin you weave this thread into Something extraordinary, into a story, beads, jewels, tares and burns litter the now intricate lace, detailing your highest highs, lowest Lows and everything in-between. The birth of children, the death of loved ones, your most fond memories and your worst. They are all weaved together, tightly. 

 

But not everything can last forever. One day one will reach the end of their spool, roll, ball and what is left behind is a story of love and loss, bravery and cowardness. A legacy. A blanket, a Cape, a jewelled crown. No matter how you live it will be there, a finished work of art presented back to you in your final moments and passed down to your closest friends and loved ones.

 

An old man left behind his old tattered cape, singed at the start and end, embedded with flowers, feathers, blades of grass.

 

An elf to many, a friend to few, a father to 4, lover to two...brother to 1. Many would have called him ordinary… maybe even a bit cold but those who knew him knew better. A man of old, scarred and broken now knelt before a man unknown in unfamiliar lands away from vortice.

 

“Bad day?” the stranger questioned as he helped Einhard remove his helm. Coughing up blood the old man responded 

 

“Yes…” the stranger knelt to see his wounds. The old man's wheezing deepened as he'd continue “vortice has fallen” he spoke, only for the stranger to speak in return.

 

“You have done all you could, The valor is calling for you…Is there anyone I need to notify of your fate?”

 

Breathing was getting harder for Einhard, he'd reach to remove his sabre and cape. Wrapping the sabre in it. “Yes…my dear leonardo…give these to him for me”

 

 

The stranger looks to the sabre and cape as he receives them “where can I find him?” he questions…but Einhard has no remaining strength to respond to him. Letting himself fall onto his side he feels himself grow cold. He was not scared of what was coming… he knew where he was going…and yet he regrets the things he had not said, the loose ends he never got to tie up.

 

It was the end now, the world grew dark and quiet and cold.

 

“...forgive me…”
