Prologue- The Darkness

  I have failed in everything I have ever set out to do.

  I dreamed of a world where everything would go right for me. That is how I arrived here. This place I once thought was spectacular. Everything seemed more simple. More pure. Ordered. But it was populated with the same humans from whence I came.

  A species of mammal. So fragile, yet so strong. So different from other animals, and yet so similar. So intelligent, yet so stupid. So righteous, yet so abhorrent.

  And I

  I tipped things in the wrong direction.

  When I performed the miraculous feat of traversing worlds, in that moment, I believed myself to be above that of a human.

  I was a God. Playing as an avatar in a world built for me.

  And now

  Even if that world was never so pure as I believed it to be

  I know I made it worse

  The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

  So, so much worse

  And I spiralled

  And I indulged

  I

  Assumed that it was all unfixable

  And I became the very embodiment of corruption

  With the last of what little good in me is left

  I would like to

  Give you a chance

  My child. My new Avatar

  To do what I failed to do

  To live a life where you bring empathy and love to others

  To put an end to the mindless creature I shall become

  Scum less than human. Less than an animal.

  Even if you are born from the darkness

  A place devoid of all hope

  I want you to glow brighter than any light could ever shine

  And maybe

  Just maybe

  It’s

  Sort of a silly idea

  But

  Maybe if you can

  Make this world just a little bit better

  Then

  Maybe that old place

  That blue planet I find myself missing more and more with each passing day

  Maybe you can prove that there can be a light for them too

  I’m so sorry to everyone I have hurt

  Everyone I will continue to hurt

  But I am the monster that must be slain

  I love

  I love ever so much

  Each and every one of you

  Goodbye
