I’m a Web Novel Author, So Editing the Plot Makes Perfect Sense

The mighty fall to their knees in the dust. The proud yearn for what they cannot have. The wanton witch dies for love, the schemer dies for loyalty, the traveler dies trying to return home, the Reaper is trapped by the River Styx, the shepherd dies for his faith, the giant of dusk falls before dawn, and the blazing sun snuffs out the light of the ancient sun. The dreamer never existed, the thief ends up with nothing, and the seeker of secrets dies in pursuit of knowledge. The sleepless fall into eternal sleep, the Key of the Stars is trapped in the heavens, the Planeswalker never returns home, and the Serpent of Fate is ruled by fate. The Anchor can carry the Black Emperor, but can also bring him down. The lost guide, the deceived God of Deceit, the transmigrator who never left his homeland.

Everyone will die, including me.

Because some things matter more than anything else.
