My fall began, as many stories do, with a girl.

This is our punishment, our Tribulation. God has abandoned this world. The faithful have already gone on to their reward, and he has left the rest of us here, at the mercy of the demons and the devils. The sins of our fathers have passed to their children, and their children's children, and it will continue to be so until this world is completely destroyed. So it doesn't matter if you believe in God or not, because He is not here.

Be careful, boy. In some tales, the hero gets eaten by the monster after all .

How easy it is to forget grudges when someone has something you need.

There are only those you can live with, and those you can work to change.
