Prologue:

Not everyone will believe this entire story.

I dare say that many will still dismiss any tale I tell as the lies of a monster.

There is no amount of good works I can do to change their hearts, but the fight is over now…

The danger has passed and I feel that soon I will have to move on from this world.

But before I go, the truth of what happened must be told in its entirety.

So even if you begin reading this story thinking of me as the slanderer who founded a church of heretics...

at least you will have the most detailed and earnest account of my falsehood.

Maybe the honesty of it will change your heart.

But the true purpose of this tale is not to covert, No...

The true purpose of this tale is to forever memorialize my memory of the people I met, the friends whom I loved…

friends who sacrificed everything for me and for the greater good of the world.

This is my story, but it's also theirs.
