Memories: The sentence "I can remember when I still had memories" needles me. Perhaps, instead of 'had', it could be 'kept'?

 

The corners of darkness: "When they overwhelmed us, they offered us positions as an ultimatum to execution." That doesn't make sense. 'An alternative to execution', or perhaps 'the alternative' for more impact, would work; so would rephrasing 'to execution' to '--that or execution.'.

 

Evil's one true weapon: Is this part long enough to stay independent? It introduces a new element (the War against the Light) but doesn't finish it.

 

O, immortal of life: No recommendations, it stands well.

 

And never does he yield: As above.

 

The little tagline after the poem is not quite enough. Either it could be removed entirely, or twisted somehow. . .I'm not sure here. . .

 

The entire story is neatly written, a good style for a journal, with the low detail and many short sentences. A compact and complete tale.
