"Never Forget" his voice whispered within the confines of his mind. A blue light emanated from the core of his being, the very bones of his skeleton gave an eerie blue glow to the whole room and the mirror that reflected upon him. His emerald eye ablaze of the wild magic that gave him life and his own death in a twist of irony. Strips of fabric and silk that made up his flesh dangled briefly in the side to reveal the lightly blue velvet stained skull of his own being...an injury from a regular spar that got rough in the end by one of his trainers. They didn't go easy on him and he prided them on that, to keep him strong and able even when years were nothing to the living undead like himself and his kingdom of magic and fabric.

The memories rushed into his mind as he recalls the face of his former human self with flashes of his friends and family of the days they lived peacefully in their village in past. His birth was a twist of a gift and death, his gift was a boon to his village from the deities that saw over the village for their continued devotion as a gift for the humans to promise, yet such a gift was also a curse for those who would kill to grasp it. His mind took a turn to seeing his family, friends, and everyone he loved burning and dying as they took everything and to steal what was given to him...yet fate intervened and death came upon them yet his own in the process...yet he did not fully die.

He will never forget those days or himself...for some consider him a Lich King... but he was more then that and not one of evil... he kept his love, passion, and his respect of those he remembers and now those who he protects and watches over in his realm a kingdom of second chances to those whose own lives never reached their full potential. A realm of which those who had their own life snuffed out yet saved by his own gift and grace to fulfill their own lives and continuation of desire. The community strives now with his watch and those who also strongly hold his beliefs as they guard and enjoy their peace that they made together as a strong community.
