Even in my dreams, I am haunted by the anguished voices of those who were lost. I used to hate this world for being plagued with tragedy, and I hated myself for being too weak to change it. But weakness is temporary. It will pour from me like sweat and blood as I fight on. I will defeat the Interfecti and bring peace to the storm of screaming souls. Their lifeless eyes watch from the shadows and surrender the silent reminder of what I know I have to do. So with my strength as my weapon and their screams as my curse, I will end all agony.
