“I see absolutely everything, there is nothing hidden from me. Whilst you sleep I am there in your dreams. Your feeble attempts to escape me by rising in the morning is hysterical for as in sleep I am still with you,”
“I can change the future and recolor the past, my reach is infinite. I am invisible, but I control all that you see. An ominous end awaits those who bid my dark side; a pathway of peace those who thread carefully. Do not try to apprehend me for like a slippery serpent I will escape you,”
“There is but one hope for you, to train me through the art of substitution empowered by a strong-will; the only way to turn the master into an obedient servant …'”

TheCoastalQuill said that evil can be defeated, but as I see your story, it can’t. It can only be made into an obedient servant, but only if one’s will stays strong. The moment it quavers the servant takes a dagger and…
Anyway. It’s a beautiful story and it sparked a very interesting discussion.

Oh nice to hear that discussions are fun most of the time. Maybe not defeated but mastered as it is a part of us. And you’re right if ignored or untrained it can wreck damage.Thanks for reading.
