Chapter I : GENESIS

  Life. What is truly the meaning of it all? For as long as conscious minds have persisted to survive, that question always stood as a testament for their perseverance. Why? Why must one fight to live? Is there a true reason for desperately clinging on to it?

Perhaps.

I Myself have an answer of my own, sharing it though, is in fact, a different story. This story is nothing like the rest. It has never been written or said, never seen nor portrayed, because the truth is… it has not even begun. 

  Humanity has existed for many years and has come a long way ever since The Creator brought them to this world, yet nowadays all that is left is merely a fraction of what it once used to be. On that fateful day 670 years ago, the entire nature of the world was reshaped in an event which brought a cataclysm that engulfed everything and everyone in the cinders of insatiable wrath. In the period of time that followed afterwards, more than 99% of the population succumbed to the destruction that ensued, with the few remaining survivors fighting tooth and nail, desperately trying to cling on to dear life.

Ever since the flame of ruination died out, small pieces of the leftover human race have started to emerge after centuries of pure devastation and torment… yet they all have forgotten the cause that drove them to these harsh living conditions.

  The poor soil was stained for years upon years, but now it has reformed and the atmosphere is no longer contaminated, life was finally given a chance to exist… but why? Why did these people keep fighting? Did they believe they could escape the cruelty of their reality? Were they hopeful for the younger generations? Was there a dream that someday they could finally… live? 

 I can assure you, by the end of it all, we may be able to actually find an answer to this everlasting question that has tortured the human race ever since its dawn. Go now child, witness the “truth” for your own, you, who will be the bridge between heaven and earth, your mind hollow, your heart devoid of emotion, your body made out of petals.

This is the beginning of it all, the start of your long journey which will give you the experience and the knowledge needed, in order to finally bring salvation to this realm, and bring upon its final verdict. And maybe, by the end, your mind will be filled with ideas, your heart will become a whirlpool of feelings and your body will finally be put to rest. 

  Your time has come. Go forth and seek the revelations, break apart every piece of the human soul and make it your own, find... the meaning of life.

That, is your purpose.

That, is your mission.

That, is your reason to live.

Wake up, Athan...
