The Boy and the Masks

Once upon a time there lived a boy surrounded by fears and wonders. He lived in a house of ashes, in a cold dark place, inside a cave he built for himself.This boy had a shadowed past, his father was an important man but never had a moment to play with him or even know his dreams and whishes. He developed a strange skill, he learned how to create fake friends and built alternative personalities, he called masks. Eventually he begun to use leather and a cizel and fabricate his own leather masks. In is silence he met a friend, a white ghost he befriended and who guided him into an oblivion errand. That ninghtly apparition, came to him in the night before he slept and told him stories of his father. The ghost´s father was a creator of worlds who had banned him from sight. So they become great friends, the boy and the creature.This ghost became dark and one day entered the boy´s body through his dreams.Then the boy gained incredible powers, he could anticipate reality, he could know events before they actually happened, but he had to speak to this ghost now living in his body all the time, and he lost intimicy with himself. Also he had to control the ghost from commiting atrocities. It was like a doppelganger inside his corpse.One day he created the perfect mask, a mirror mask so he could embodided the world but he lost is essence, his way to reach happiness. Years after he was rich and powerful but he lost is innocence, his inspiration, and had to live with his masks all the time without space to love.Then he met a girl, intoxicating, and together they open the portals to other dimensions, but still he couldn´t find his happiness. He knew all the simbols and controlled all things around him, and still something was missing. He never pray during those years, he never felt small or humble before god, and he lost his father in the process of becoming great, he only had the shadow of his dreams and goals. Now he realize it is always a bargaining, if you sell your soul, you sell your hapiness and surrender your fight.But there is allways redemption.
