Curse Of A Hero

 

Heroes. what use is a hero? In a world full of evil a hero should shine, but living as a hero is a lonely existence. The people you try to save shun you, spit on you like you were a piece of common street trash. You see heroes are alone in their quest but this is a quest not to save the innocent in the world, their quest is to clear their tainted souls. Heroes are not pure of heart, Heroes were once the demon that stalked the pure. The things that turn the demons into heroes are what make heroes more fearless. Guilt. Remorse. A hero is on his own road looking for redemption and they must travel the road alone. For the reaper puts his temptations in the hero's way. Lust. Greed. The reaper will take advantage of these and as a hero falls he will rap his boned fingers around their neck, and force to hero to die. But can the soul of a hero really be cleared? Can the evil of a hero's past really be forgiven? Or are the heroes forced to walk an endless road fighting the losing battles they must face? Because the road will be long a treacherous and many will die, But that is the Curse of a hero

this piece of writing is veri interesting and origional, giving the reader a chance to think, unlike the modern society usually allows. Was this written after an certain situation or just looking around at the world?
