You were given a chance, given a way to survive, but left with nothing but wounds covering your body and an endless capacity for forgiveness, until you were battered, disgraced, and left with nothing at all. Was that really what they called love, the best thing that could be left behind? So this world truly was nothing but overwhelming darkness, shrouding everything. "This was a choice. We simply took the road that seemed relatively better." Life is nothing but an endless series of choices. But even the right choice does not necessarily mean survival.
