Billions of people exist under the same sun and breathe in the same atmosphere. We're never alone in this world. No face is so alien to us that we cannot comprehend. Despite that, our minds create solitude in a crowd full of people. It creates loneliness in a universe that demands attention and social interaction to survive. Even so, there is always someone out there. At my darkest moments, I found light in a place where only darkness could be found.
Just because this place was once a dark one does not mean that there was never any light.
The Story
I go by the moniker of Terra. You might wonder what the purpose of this website is. It's rather simple. I am a writer, through and through. I'm still trying to figure out my life. I have no idea where I'm going from here, but I do know that my stories are the most important part of me. Worlds created in my mind spilled into thousands of words become jumbled and unscrambled in an effort to be whole. Everything about this site, my life, and more, is reflected in my writing. So I hope to keep this little pocket of the web as a way to mark my life inside and outside of my writing.
Some day, it might be a good marker as to why I wrote what I did. Or perhaps it can show you and me what inspired all of these worlds, these words, these people that I write into existence. I want to tell you about a boy who fell into another world and a girl who found herself in a place where no light fell. About a man who wanted to live a normal life until he understood that action was the reason why heroes and leaders were born. About a woman who learned to find trust against her own prejudices. About a girl who understood how her own ideals could burn a world. About a boy who understood that even when hope dies, one could always find it in themselves again. Let me tell you the story of a boy and a girl who learned that the greatest magic in this universe that could exist was never what we imagine.
