The Intro

Well, it's not great, but it's something. It's the intro to a little piece of work I play with in my free time.

Welcome to my world. A world where the powerless are few and far between, and are so inconsequential to everyday events that we're largely left alone, to do what we please. In a world where nearly everyone has a power of some sort, what would be major problems before the mutations are inconsequentrial now. There's no hunger, no disease, and no countries. Despite this, the world certainly hasn't improved. Instead of countries, there's now Lords and Ladies. Rulers. The Lord of this once lush land you now look down upon is called Black. The land, as you can plainly see, is no longer lush. It doesn't need to be, as Lord Black can have food produced by manipulating the atoms of the world without any trouble. Lord Black would control the entire world by now, were his power any more spectacular than those of the other Lords and Ladies. Instead, the entire world is now at war, with no respite in sight. Those with powers that have any use in combat are quickly sent off to fight. We, the powerless, are the lowest of the low. Unable to fight, we've been relegated to simply begging for food. This, however, is our strength. We have no jobs. We have no duty. We have nothing. Nothing, that is, except for our desires. Desires, though, we have absolutely no shortage of. Come, now, and we will see exactly what I mean, as mere words no longer will suffice.
See, now, the few. The few who were born, through some accident of fate, genetics, or the very act of God, with no powers. Not one of these nearly two dozen people before us has a power. There’s not even fifty of us, and you will probably get a chance to see each and everyone one tonight. Yet, in these few, there is more power than in the combined armies of all the Rulers on this planet. Weak, yet immensely powerful. After we've taken the entire tour, there will be no doubt left. These are the strongest people in this kingdom and among the strongest in the world. There is a secret, of course, to their power. I see you desire to know the secret. This is unfortunate, for I shall not tell you it. Later today, tonight, you will see firsthand what their power is. They're tired of being subjugated, you see. Tonight is the night that subjugation will end. Now, about that tour you were promised. Shall we get started?


If you like it, I'll post more sometime later. I do have more written, and wouldn't mind posting it, I guess.
