-=[The Lesser Body]=-
I circled him cautiously. He was twice my size or more, but I was persistent nonetheless.
My brother. He was the elder, and all the more arrogant for it. Even so, he failed utterly in his tasks, and was a miserable wretch in the eyes of our community.
He had taken his age as a sign from the heavens, that he was meant to be greater than all – myself included. He had wrestled with me repeatedly, and won every time. Now he was back again, and I was doing my very best to get out of his choke hold.
I looked for an opening, but found none. His grip was impenetrable. I felt his weight dragging me down, and it took all of my strength to hold myself up – away from certain doom.
He wouldn’t dominate me forever, though. In time I would grow, I need only stay my ground. In time, I would wrestle him down and win for once. Endurance was my best friend.
But for now, he would continue to think himself the most important thing in the universe. He would nurture his twisted nature. He would hold tight his throne, yet betray its true purpose in his actions.
For now, he would be filthy, a disgrace to everything we held dear. He would mock my beauty. He would complain to the celestial bodies, because their positions did*’t suit his mood just right. He would apologize to none.
