Prolog
And everything went dark …
…………………………………………………
I probably should explain how I got to this point.
My Name is Charles Benjamin White and my story so far is nothing you could write home about.
The biggest difference between me and most people is, that I was born with two hearts. Luckily I never had any medical issues because of that.
My Childhood was nothing extraordinary, while I never really got along with most people, school was quite easy for me so I never really put much effort in it.
After I graduated, with a better then average score, but not exactly top grades, I had no clue what to do with my life. So I went with the next best step that should be similar. University.
But how wrong I was about that. With next to no social skills and no experience, actually having to learn for exams, things were going downhill.
Now with 24, after struggling to the final year, I just finished, taking one of my last exams, making may way back to my small apartment, hoping my bad feeling was just from my broken ”sleep rhythm”, if you can call serious sleep deprivation that.
Struggling to climb the final stairs to my small home and slipped on the last stair, lost my balance, fell, a cracking sound and then darkness.
Well that was my life.
…………………………………………………
At least I thought that would be the end.
If this is the Afterlife, just eternal darkness, then that would truly suck.
After what felt like hours or days, I felt like I totally lost any sense of time. I heard a weird voice talking to me.

Well talking is not really how it felt, more like it transferred an intent to me, that felt like being talked to.
But well, looks like one mystery is solved: What happens after death …

‘What is going on ? Where am I ?
It feels warm, I think I’m gonna sleep a bit …’
…
… …
… … …
‘Huh still here and still no clue what’s going on or what happened.’
…
’Oh right … I died … and then that thing with me being reincarnated … if I am, where I think I am. Then I just have to wait until until I am being born … Urgh, not sure I want to experience my new birthday in present and conscious … not like I can do anything but wait …’
…
… …
… … …
‘I feel something … it’s happening … I think, I‘m going to be born …’
…
… …
… … …
And finally I am born or ”reborn”. And wow do I feel weird. Exhausted, anxious, irritated and so much more. I feel like I am going to cry. Ok now I do …
…
I just notice that I am being moved, wrapped in something and moved to a Woman’s chest.
I start to feel myself calm down, I can finally look around. My vision not blurred anymore. I can see the Woman holding me to her chest, my new Mom, I just know.
She looks really exhausted but happy.
Tousled, long, golden hair, white, pale skin and shining, deep violet eyes and a exhausted, but beautiful smile.
Next to her is a big ”Buff” looking man, with golden hair, that looks like a lion’s mane, a little bit darker than my mom’s, a full beard, serious, but sparkling golden eyes and surprisingly, two round, furry ears on top of his head. He is sitting next to her, while holding my mom’s hand.
Surprised I look back to her but she seems to have normal ears.
While looking around, we also do not seem to be in a hospital, but in a big luxurious bedroom, that looks to belong to a mansion or something similar.
I notice that there are two additional people standing in the room. Those two are wearing some kind of maid uniform and both have gray cat ears.
‘Wow looks like I reincarnated into a fantasy World … hope there is magic too … I mean, who in my position wouldn’t hope that there is magic, I mean magic !’
While pondering over the possibility of magic, I hear my new Parents talking:
”ic€ &i% %£*#%# €&*¥£”
”€0&% $~#*”
While I do not understand what they say, it sounds somehow familiar. My mother looks deep in my eyes and softly says:
”%£@ #@&€*%”
I have no clue what she actually said, but a sudden prompt brings light on the subject.
