Prologue

The only way to the top in this world,
this world born of war,
born of death,
the only way of ascension?
...is to become someone you don't want to be.
And so I've got to break a promise.
Because I've got a job to do.
And there's no-one who's going to keep me from it.

How can something so enticing have such awful side affects?
All the itching and the scratching from withdrawl keeps me out of check,
I am fixated on all of the things that we were together,
but those are fragments that are better off lost forever.
