I dont have a first line yet, cuz im writing middle chapters just so i can atleast, like, start somewhere? But, this is my favourite line ive come up with so far: "building a nation from the ground up is not as easy as one would think...or atleast as easy as i thought. Especially when building over the corpse of a nation that once held my devotion"

My opening is: In a time before light and before shadow, there was the Great Eternalcat.
She had many names and took many forms, and to this day she is known by the Tulamishian peoples as Oranathe, the Giver. With her hands she raised the trees from the land, and with her voice she summoned the light of the Sun and brought forth the great seas.
From the skies she brought the first Tulha and breathed life into them, and from the hollowed and yawning night she brought the light of the first flame to guide them in the dark. 🫶🏻

.London is just how I remember.
Shops and cafes line up down every street where people walk and drive by every day. I would be driving to London headquarters if my Koenigsegg Jesko 2025 model wasn’t stuck in transport.
Then again I probably shouldn’t be driving that fast of a car down these crowded streets.
London was once my home– Granted my home wasn’t the happiest place on earth, but it was still home. I left when I was 18 and made Brazil my new home, all while becoming one of the worlds most well-known and feared agents you will ever know. But not even my best combat skills will stop my demons from haunting me every night. And those same demons feel even stronger now that I’m here.

The Hooded Crow :
The necromancer's tower stood alone below the hills, like a boil had risen out of the ground, raising itself ever so slowly with malignant purpose.

Ooo, I love yours… Here’s mine: Esek hadn't wanted to see red.
Red meant trouble. Red meant complications. Red meant cleaning up a mess that was never his to begin with.But red dripped between his fingers, a thick and sluggish warmth blooming across his palms. He exhaled through his nose, the warmth of the blood felt almost human. Almost alive. He let the body fall.
