Retribution: The beginning of a graphic novel project....hopefully

Life needs payment doesn't it?

Every act, be it of love or hate, be it of violence or compassion. The moments spent with someone you love reduced to the memories you now carry or the greatest loyalties that are balanced out by the simplest of betrayals.The deeds we do, the crimes we commit, the burdens we bear are nothing but a price. A retribution that life seeks from all.

Every moment of our life demands a price for the life we give up and consume with every breath. For every moment of joy and for every shred of sorrow.This is life's retribution, be it for acts of our own or for another's. Life demands payment, a balance very elemental in its nature and basic in its need, yet great are its implications.

We all bear them.

We all pay them.

Water through sweat and tears.

Fire through passion and pain.

Air through every breath and whisper.

And earth through birth and death.

The heaviest price of all, it asks for blood.

How you pay the price is how you live the life you are cursed with. Once the price is paid death gives you redemption and solace..
