The Anime Void

The moment I saw her it was love at first sight. A terrible curse I would have to carry through all eternity.

When I first met her on the Reef, it was hard not to be enamored by her beauty and grace. Her power and majesty. Our glowing eyes met and that was that, my fate was sealed. Not hers though. I knew from the moment that she took my heart that she did not want it. Her own heart already belonged to another.

And that's how it always was, how it always will be. I grieved her loss and celebrated her return, but never once dared to push past the crystalline wall that stood between us. So long as I could see through that wall, speak through that wall… I told myself it would be enough.
