To Be Obscure

"I pray for your soul, Lamont Oliver. I pray God has mercy on you. And on me, for loving you."

***
When one lives for hundreds of years, mistakes happen. They build upon each other, creating a tower of sins. Higher and higher they go until they crumble under their own weight.

For Lamont, that is the only life he knows, not that he remembers it well. A revolving door of regrets, a cascading waterfall of forgotten memories. His only means of dealing with his immortal, cursed life is to drink away his sorrows. He knows no type of prayer can rid his soul of the evil he's committed, and no amount of hope can bring back the love of his life.

When a mysterious girl shows up at his doorstep, hope flickers, changing his fate. The girl carries a journal he long thought he had thrown away. In its pages are the days he can't remember, longed to relive, and her -- the woman he loved, cherished, and abandoned, all in the past one hundred years. He knows he can see her again.

Alongside the possibility of holding her in his arms again are the demons from his nightmares, reminding him of the reason he shouldn't be. He knows if he tries to find her again, they'll come for him, to devour him.

Lamont doesn't fear death...

His only fear is to never have her again.
