Damned Souls
Time is simply a function or tool invented to measure the length of the interval between events. As a result, we can only physically exist in this present existence. But what if I told you that the past, present, and future exist simultaneously in another realm. Once The Energy leaves a dead body, it only takes a matter of time until it enters a new one. This Energy that mortal beings came to know as a soul constantly transfers back and forth, taking on many forms. A consciousness capable of assuming various identities, travelling through time on a predetermined path. Imagine having to relive the same loss and pain repeatedly, constantly being haunted by the memories of all your previous lives, unable to escape from a cycle of suffering. And no matter how hard we try to prevent past occurrences from reoccurring, it's impossible to outrun our written destiny. Most stories begin when we are born, but mine began after my death. I'm fated to perish at the hands of the man I came to love. My soul was bound to his through space and time; be born, fall in love, and die tragically. It was our punishment for disobeying the rules and betraying our own. But, for this story to make any sense, we must start at the beginning—the start of my existence.
