The next life after being a Light Guard that i can remember must be the Sword Planet one. Basically i was orphaned at a young age because my parents were considered traitors to our rulers and i was raised in an orphangage type place. Basically our house trained the people who lived in it how to do things that weren't considered allright, but we understood that they were important things to know how to do. We never even hinted that our house taught girls to read, or magics that only high level priests were allowed to do, except to the people whom we were responsible for taking care of. Ours was the safe house of our neighborhood, and i would not tolerate blood spilled in my turf. This was how i met my boyfriend for the first time, he was nearly killed on my turf, and even more it was near my home. He was really the prince but i didn't know that when i drug his half dead carcass in off the street. His adopted brother had tried to kill him because they got in a disagreement over how the Sword of Power, that our society was based around, should be used. I got involved in this because i saved him, and things went a bit further, but that doesn't need to be described here. We finally went to make our last stand, only he didn't want me to get hurt or involved in the fight. We made a deal that i would take care of his brother's underlings so that he could go on ahead after the sword, and that as soon as i was done i would go back to my house to wait for him. He never came back. I knew by this that he had failed and been killed, but there was no way i was going to just stand by now and let things happen. I went to the temple where the sword was that morning and asked the Preist if i could prey before it for "The soul of my lover, recently departed." He allowed it. I knelt at the allowed distance from the sword, and took out a dagger slitting my wrist open. My plan was to place a blood seal on the sword so that no one would be able to use it, ever. I ran forward, and i was being attacked from all sides by different preists and preistesses trying to keep the sword from being stollen. I died when i reached the sword, all of my blood being spent and put into the seal i placed.
