I enter the coffe shop and, as I stare at the balcony, I see someone I haven't seen in a very, very long time, and it brings me some bad memories. But time passes, and I'm not the type of guy to hold any grudges.
"Good morning. Can I have a Chai latte, please?"
"You..."
"I know, right? That battle 336 years ago... it's in the past. Let's just move on, Ok?"
"But how could I forget that?"
"I didn't forget that either... yet here I am, just ordering a Chai latte, as if nothing happened"
"Indeed... I did some wrong things... it's for the best if we keep these things in the past" He says after thinking for some seconds, while preparing the coffee.
"So... how has life been after all this time?"
"Well... I have a wife now. Some kids... Even though I will see them getting really old, it's nice having a family."
"Good. Glad to know that." Thinking about what Aarix just said, he really moved on. 336 years later, and I'm here, still alone. Considering this immortality as if it was a damnation, yet I could really do something to make it more like a blessing. I was supposed to be the hero at that time, yet now I'm more like the renegade.
Yeah... tables turn.

Reply to [WP] You're immortal, and have passed the 'hero' phase centuries ago. You enter a small coffee shop one day to find that it's owned by your millennia-old arch-nemesis. You really, really just want a chai latte though. by Prompt_Dude

"Here's your Chai latte. Enjoy it!"
"Thank you."
