(Authors note consider the description as the prolgue)
After my demise to some stupid religious people. I awoke in something akin to how purgatory or limbo is often described never ending darkness. Yet thousands of different colored lights floated about.looking at myself I noticed I was one of them.
'I see so not quite purgatory more limbo which means I will be getting judged soon.'
Despite this the it was quite a while before anything happened. In fact more souls just seemed to be coming rather then leaving.
Eventually it was so full that we were being pushed and pulled then I realized something.
'Fck this isn't limbo or purgatory we are about to be eaten!'
By what you may ask. Well WTF else a reaper.
Being a mage he new how to stop this but if he did not dominate his will on every single one he would be gone permanently his soul wiped from existence. When soul enters a reapers digestive system they are purified before reincarnation. Absorbing the fugly evil parts(reason why reapers look and smell like shit. With the exception of blood reapers there above soul reapers in that they contract a soul and a host while killing evil and having said evil serve them(sort of like a prison sentence)
So I began merging with other souls keeping me at the very center to protect myself. It actually wasn't that difficult apparently most of them had been wiped of impurities the moment they entered turns out people of magic down to there very souls are more resilient good to know.
After what seemed like an eternity and me having to share half the souls with someone who obviously had similar heritage( only reason I shared was because the soul was blue symbolizing tranquility purity and peice. Basically someone was already pure before entering..... My soul is purple by the way which represents magical nature at its peek. Blue symbolizes magical or life at near peak. Life being similar to qi or chi but slightly more magical.

So we where finally free the moment we existed the souls dispersed while some joined our own(me and blue. )
Upon exit there was 6 portals it seemed we instinctively knew which one to chose but being intelligent I knew to resist the instinct. The one "it" chose for you was often times the worst to go to and the exact opposite of where you belonged so I chose the second one to the far right.
Unlike a normal birth however I seemed to have just formed. I was huminoid but with many pulsing glowing tribal tattoos. My hair was long and a dark purple. My skin was a pasty white that heavily contradicted the purple glow resulting in a beastly appearance. I felt my face 'smooth' I thought bringing my hand across my face and for head it seemed I had human looks my ears pointed but not really elvish more of a slight impish point. After a fluttering sound I notice I had beautiful wings one purple one white. I also noticed a tail it was kind of thick like a lizards but it had feathers on it rather then scales and still rapped around my easy pretty well.
I was on the top of one mountain on a particularly large mountain range 3 moons held high in red purple and blue respectively the air was very clean.
With one step forward using wind magic to help me a bit a dove down the mountain and extended my wings taking flight.
It was simply amazing.
