There's a light in me, that's always been in me that wants to very badly to reach out and save those worth saving. It's fists clench in the face of blatant injustice, and the knuckles harden in anticipation of righting the wrongs.

It holds it's head low however, for the world is dark, so very dark. And no matter how bright the light is, it can never fully illuminate the whole. For many years I strode down the path of darkness, my little light cowered away in a corner, it'd been shunned, and it knew it. Violence, neglect, hatred, raw malice and pure pessimism had consumed me.

The light wanted out so very badly, and it made several attempts to free itself, only to be overcome once more by darkness. In my darkest hour however it came through, bursting from the seams, illuminating the umbra that had become me...tonight it shows brightly. Tonight I realize again what justice is. There is no compromise in justice. Never.

"Soon there will be war. Millions will burn. Millions will perish in sickness and misery. Why does one death matter against so many? Because there is good and there is evil, and evil must be punished. Even in the face of Armageddon I shall not compromise in this. But there are so many deserving of retribution ... and there is so little time. No. Not even in the face of Armageddon. Never compromise."
