My dearest reader,
You stand on the precipice of a new existence, a path woven from threads of sorrow, defiance, and a fragile hope. What follows is not merely a tale, but a sacred decree—a whisper from the very heart of the cosmos.
As you journey through this world and the ones beyond, you will witness countless choices, each one a ripple in the fabric of reality. You will see grand gestures and subtle cruelties, and you will be tempted to find a simple way to define what is right or wrong.
But I charge you with this one, immutable truth: do no evil that would cause one another harm.
This is the foundational law of all creation. Its defiance has been a poison since the first breath, and I have seen the scars it leaves on a universe that yearns for peace. The path you are about to walk is a testament to the consequences of a world that lost its way, and the echoes of a truth that was, for a time, forgotten.
May this chronicle serve as a light in the shadows. For even in the deepest darkness, a single act of kindness can illuminate the path home.
With the hope of endless rest,
Snow
