Let''s start slow! Here''s Milo''s song that he likes to hum every once in a while:


    Verse 1:


    Round and round the world we go,


    Past the rivers, through the snow.


    Chasing shadows, chasing light,


    Hide before the fall of night.


    Chorus:


    Hide, hide, don’t make a sound,


    Close your eyes and count to ten,


    Till the sun comes back around,


    You’ll be safe when light comes then.


    Verse 2:


    Far away the mountains sing,


    But no one hears a single thing.


    Run and run, don''t stop to stare,


    Monsters dance in the open air.


    This is a song made by his mother and that she used to sing to him when he was younger. It sort of acted as a way to both reassure him and also ingraine some survival aspects early on in his childhood. What do you think happened to his mother? Do you believe Milo will get to see her again?

    Here''s a drawing of Alek made by the talented CenturyRobot</a> :

    What do you think? Personally I find it so cool to have a real image of something that is a product of my imagination. And it''s given me the motivation to get back to drawing to produce art for Whimpers of the Light.


    He looks a bit russian here, we could say it''s a limited edition skin "Metro Last Light" for Alek ~~

    Lastly to get you excited for part 2 here''s a snippet for a chapter that will come very soon:


    <blockquote>


    He stood at the edge of the crumbling skyscraper, his scarred face aglow in the blood-red horizon, where the sky seemed to weep for the sins of the earth. Clouds roiled heavy with sorrow, etching an ominous scene alive with a soft wind. It swept through the remains of this monstrosity of a building, reverberating with haunting echoes that rushed through its rusted frame — a brutal symphony of chaos laying siege to order.


    It was only fitting for such an occasion. A melody played by nature itself to celebrate the end of an era. Had there ever been a more beautiful way to revel at the prospect of a dying society? One that had held on for too long already. Dead ideas and dead people grasping for an air not destined for them. Pitiful.


    As night descended upon the wasteland, a grim certainty settled over him; the moment had come. Long dormant in their slumber, the Children would awaken tonight and reclaim a world stolen from them.


    </blockquote>


    I''m very excited to share this. Let me know your theories on what it could be about!


    I can also tell you that a Milo chapter is coming right after the first chapter of part 2.
