“Revelation and Requiems”

Ekphrasis: The final moment of my first novel plan. Basically the brooding, aloof Noxis who had once shut him self off from the world has come to recognise the beauty of small things in life that he had previously not cared for or valued. The way his friend, Edith would pester him to duel, tease him, call him names and annoy him. The way his other friend, Law, would lose control at the sight of desserts, cream smeared across his face in which Noxis would wipe it off irritably. These memories… these moments. All of it, he wanted to see them once more. After tragedy and suffering, he had closed himself from the world— there but not present. Simply existing. Eyes shut and ears clasped… but at least now with his friends, he wants to see once more. He opens his heart and trusts to love and friendship and for once… he can’t help but feel emotions swelling in him, a wave of revelation washing over him.
