I love my world.  It is all that I have ever wanted except one thing.  I have been alive a very long time and my pleasures are few.  I am always seeking to make my life better.  I am now living in the castle in a position that I deserve.  I live a simple life that suits me. 

The world awakens when I do, and sleeps when I am at rest.  I feed on the lives around me, drinking in the essence of creation and forming it to fit my needs.  I am life itself.  I breathe and the world lives on.

Every morning, I have servants to attend my needs.  I spend my days in my lab experimenting with herbs, crystals, and various forms of energy trying to find that one thing to make my world complete and perfect:  Life's secret formula.  I am so very close, which makes the experiments that much more important, but also that much more exciting.

People in the village fear me.  They have seen the power that I can wield by just raising my hand.  I steal their very life's energy and there is nothing they can do to stop me.  The energy they unwittingly supply me makes me more powerful, and makes them weaker. They have good reason to fear.  I use them as volunteers for my work and  they come willingly, thanks to the magic at my command.

The very magic of life courses through my soul as it's never done before.  I breathe and feel the world's energy flow through me.  I can almost feel the Earth as it creates life.  And it's all mine ... life and death are at my fingertips waiting for my next command!
