Author's notes:
Vying for the Complexity Theorist Badge…
This all got way out of hands. It doesn’t come out even halfway as I wanted it to. Do you too have the impression sometimes that your characters have a mind of their own and (successfully) try to bully you into writing what suits them instead of what you want? It certainly felt that way this time, like I had to fight for my story… and lost.
Summary:
Back in the sands of time, a man was chosen to Witness the greatest battle of all.
Nowadays, the fight isn't over yet.
