The Summoning (Vessel)

Goodbye (Suit)
This feels wrong. Everything about this day feels wrong. The sky is bright blue with not a cloud in sight. Aren’t the heavens supposed to weep on days like this? Why am I the only one crying? The suit fits uncomfortably on my body as the sun bears down. The sweat mixes with my tears …

The Fight (Dizzy)
I open my eyes feeling dizzy. I look toward my right only to be met with a punch to the face. How many times have I been hit? How many times have I fallen down? Why do I keep getting back up? I feel the pain radiate throughout my body. I can’t keep doing this.
