My Quest

To my allies and enemies,

 

I am setting out on a quest that I have benn waiting to start for my entire existence. (A very long time, most of which has been pretty boring!)

As some of you know, I have been through a lot in the past few months and years, everything from losing my best friend to being named Master Shade to losing my immortality, and having it given back.

The point of all this is that I am ready to start what I believe will be the focal point of my existence.

I am going to search for the Invictus Technique.

For those who don't know, the Invictus Technique is the technique that allows one to be completely invulnerable to any and all psionic attacks.Invictus translates to "unconquerable".

This technique is said to be hidden in the darkest of places, which is the only starting point I have.

First I will comb the shadow realms, one by one. The Verse, Then the anti-Verse, followed by the non-continual realms outside this universe. Then, failing all else, Earth.

I believe that with my fantastic new power, I am ready to find the most treasured secret in the entire Universe.

Wish me well friends. A word before I go:

This realm is tearing at the seams. Men's hearts will falter and fail, but hear these words:

You've gotta swim
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so sure you'll survive
You gotta swim
And swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far
To fall off the earth
The currents will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
A crack in the armor
I swim to brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
Through nights that won't end
Swim for your families
Your lovers your sisters
And brothers and friends
Yeah you've gotta swim
Through wars without cause
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their greed as a flaw

The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim for brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
Well I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
Swim in the dark
There's no shame in drifting
Feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark
Yeah you've gotta swim
Don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you it's not as far as you think
The currents will drag us away from our love
Just keep your head above
Just keep your head above
Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim, swim
Just keep your head above
Swim

 

Good luck friends, and goodbye. I will still be on the site, but posting my progress.

I WILL NOT share the technique if I find it, however. If you want it, you must find it on your own.

May you live in interesting times.
