[District One]

[Aristocratic Manor]

The heavy fragrance of flowers mingled in the air as the scented candles burned. An enormous roast pig lay in the middle of a beautifully decorated table, and numerous people in fancy garb stood around and chatted happily in the dim, mood lighting of the room.

“The new place is nice and all, but I just hate being so close to the Wall. It keeps the sun from coming in my window. Honestly, as if the walls weren’t enough of an eye sore.”

Two aristocrats in a corner prattled on about their disdain for the enormous stone walls. Everyone in Pansozo knew of the walls, from the lowest beggar on the streets all the way up to the King himself. Everyone knew how important the walls were – but many took them for granted from behind their safety.

In the corner of the room, a man with dark hair and pale skin swept through the crowds with a glass of wine in his hand and a smirk carefully etched onto his lips. Rica did ever so enjoy these society soirees.

He stopped by the window, peering out at the wall past the glass of the window. The smirk only grew. “… This town is so bo-o-oring. Somebody really ought to liven things up around here.”

[District Two]

[Crowded Streets]

“… I think I took a wrong turn somewhere.” A young woman with vibrant red hair and an enormous grin was staring at her map – which she held upside down. After a moment she shrugged and stuffed the paper into the deep pocket of her long brown trench coat.

“Oh well. I’ll find him… or he’ll find me… wait, am I looking for a her? I should write these things down.”

[District Three]

[Cadet Training Facility]

The sun waxed hot overhead at one of the premier training facilities in District Three. Although farmland stretched for miles around them, the fenced in military grounds were filled with young cadets milling around.

For once they actually had a day off from the usual non-stop training they endured. One of the Councilors was expected to give a speech to the Cadets later in the day, and they’d been given time to “prepare” for it.

At one side of the training grounds was a young man with brownish-red hair and goggles who sat by the side of a building and read through his book.

Elsewhere, a young man and a young woman were arguing loudly as they walked through a currently-unused obstacle course.

Walking across the grounds, watching the Cadets linger, was a young woman who served with the Survey Corps. Her crimson eyes focused on each of the people she passed. As always, she heard a few snickers from people who noticed the Wing Patch on her jacket.

The Survey Corps had become a joke in recent years. Once they were famous for carrying the hope of Pansozo on their backs – but after years of failure to find ways to expand, or discover the cause of the monsters that threatened their daily life, the Survey Corps reputation had been damage.

“One day… One day we’ll change things…” Nanami muttered to herself.

[???]

A group of mysterious men in masks and cloaks walked down a dusty dirt road. They looked out of place, but they were in such a remote area of District Three that no one was around to see them. They cut through the cornfields of a farm.

Several of them carried large boxes in their arms, and behind them a single man followed. He wore no cloak, and had no mask, although his face was so unusual it could easily be mistaken for one.

“I’m so excited I can hardly wait! Heheh… today is going to be a blast… Hahahahahaahaha!”

I can't see what you're imagining
District I

-Aristocratic Manor-

Claire Douglas looked around the party. She disliked these functions, but it was necessary to keep up appearances, and he would like to be informed if there was anything important discussed about.

So far it was much of the same. Aristocrats being... annoying, for the most part.

-The King's Palace-

“So what reports are there, Joshua?” the King asked, frowning as he looked over an old and faded map. Maps like this were rare, and had been won from the blood and sweat of the Survey Corps.

“Not much, Don,” the King's head of security, and thus the leader of the Elite branch of the military, Joshua Nadir, answered as he stepped into the room. Only four people called him something besides 'your majesty' and Joshua was only one of two that wasn't family.

Gallic sighed, looking up at Joshua, “The monster attacks are getting worse... She was very firm in that.”

“Yah... think we should call them back?” Joshua asked, “They're good, but... she is your only heir...”

“I don't think she'd come back here with everything happening unless she absolutely needed to. She takes after her mother... doesn't like just sitting around,” Gallic answered, straightening up now, “Speaking of which, neither do I... I wonder what the Council is going to say about the increase of monster attacks...”

District II

-Streets-

“Excuse, but are you lost?”

A young woman with long brown hair, pulled back in a ponytail approached the lost looking red head, wearing a white coat of some kind.

Aboy looked concerned. People lost in District 2 could be bad, it was a confusing place sometimes.

District III

-Cadet Training Facility-

“Definitely,” a dark skinned girl said, walking next to Nanami, “There's just been a lot more monsters lately... I wonder what's causing it.”

Ila Nadir had known Nanami for a while now, as their fathers had as well.

“Maybe we could talk with the commander and get a crack squad together to check it out. Get some of the better members together... Might stand a better chance of seeing what's out there...” Ila suggested.



Two girls were arguing, one of them tall with black hair,the tips of her bangs and ponytails red. The other was much shorter, with long brown hair.

“That weapon is way too slow and clumsy, Fire!” the brown haired girl frowned, “You need something much cooler, like me!”

“Yes, I'm sure your arrows will do wonders, Miji,” Fire said, hefting her large maul with relative ease, “I can one hit KO most things. You expend like an entire quiver.”

Miji frowned, “But I can hit things before they get close!”

-Small Town-

“Daddddy, I'm boooooored, can't we go play?” a little girl with red hair pouted, stomping her foot as she looked towards her dad.

Samuel sighed a little, bending down to Lily and patting her head, “Sure. You and Galv can go play with the other kids.”

Lily grinned, turning towards her twin and grabbing his arm. Galv nodded, following after his twin.

“Are you sure they'll be alright?” Levina asked, holding their youngest daughter.

“I'm sure. Besides, it's good for them to make some friends,” Samuel said.

District Two

A teenage girl was rushing down the street, a grin on her face as she weaved through a crowd of people on the street. She was obviously being chased, as several officers were yelling for her to stop. Naturally the girl ignored them, turning a corner into an alley.

Chloe clutched her chest for a moment, catching her breath. This all was fun, but also a bit tiring. She needed to find a decent hide out.

"Hey! You stop!"

Chloe perked up, deciding to climb through an open window she could reach. She wasn't even sure what the building was but she didn't really care.


District Three

Narroh Home

A fourteen year old boy rushed home after a long day at school, in his hands was a large envelope that he was eager to share with his mother and younger sister. He made quick work of the pathway leading to their home, hopping a few stones and stumbling a bit as he reached his front door. Quickly he took a breath and composed himself, unlocking his door and stepping in. The house was dark, which did not surprise the boy, but it was oddly quiet.

"Mom? Mel?" Jason called out, dropping his bag by the door and heading to the back room. The boy stopped in front of Melanie's door, knocking and letting himself in. Instantly he was greeted with an uncomfortable chill, but he smiled seeing his little sister sitting in her bed, surrounded by a mass of blankets and several dolls.

The little girl looked up, grinning when she noticed her brother and scrambling to get out of her bed. "You're home!" she exclaimed. The girl looked extremely happy, but a bit tired. It was obvious that she hadn't seen the sun in awhile.

"Hey Mel, how are you feeling?"

Melanie gave a shrug. "Fine, I slept pretty much all day. Oh, but I did work on school stuff-"

"I swear Mel, you're the only kid I know eager to go to school. You're going to be ahead before you even get there"

"I just want to make sure I know what i'm doing! I don't want to get kicked out for being too dumb or something!"

Jason gave a small chuckle, ruffling the girl's messy black hair. Melanie was starting school tomorrow, real school- none of this half-assed home-schooling that his mom sometime attempted for the girl when she wasn't busy with work. Before now Melanie had been too sick to go to school, or barely even to go outside. The girl usually stayed in her room, curled up in bed keeping herself company. It was rather depressing in Jason's opinion, but he was just a kid, what was he supposed to do about his mother's decision? There was no talking to Kanna...Especially disagreeing.

Luckily Kanna had decided that Melanie was healthy enough to attend school starting tomorrow. More like the woman officially had no more time to teach Melanie herself. Kanna had just been promoted to the Elite Corps, which meant she would be around even less now. That meant that the eight-year-old girl would get to go to school and spend more than a few minutes outside. It was all rather exciting to the girl.

"What's in the envelope?" Melanie asked, pointing at it. "Something important?"

Jason blinked, but gave a nod. "I got accepted to the Cadet Corps!" he exclaimed, trying to play it cool but failing. "Where's mom? I wanted to tell her too"

Melanie frowned a bit "She left this morning, something about going to district one for a few days. She left food and stuff and said she'd be home by the weekend."

Jason groaned "Figures....Come on Mel, if Kanna's not here then we're going out"

"Where?" Melanie asked, already grabbing her coat and slipping on her shoes. She didn't complain about getting to go out. She followed the boy as he headed outside into the front yard.

"I'm a cadet now, so I can start training. But I can't leave you at home. So you're coming too"

Melanie frowned "I don't think they're going to like that Jason"

Jason shrugged "They'll get over it"

[District II]

[Streets]

The young woman stopped and turned around at the voice. For a moment she stood, raising an eyebrow and seemingly sizing up Aboy. She rubbed her chin in deep contemplation.

“Lost? No, not at all. I grew up here, I just don’t remember where anything is. Say, are you her?” She tilted her head in confusion. “If you are, blink twice. No, wait, you can’t be her. She’s a man. I think. Or not.”

[Building]

A young woman was hunched over a workbench, carefully connecting two pieces of metal when she suddenly heard a loud clang and jumped up. She turned in time to see someone climbing in the window.

In an instant the girl with the puffy hair grabbed a hammer from her desk and stepped forward with a slight growl.

“You picked the wroooong house to rob, lady!” Lara announced boldly.

[District III]

[Cadet Training Facility]

“That’s precisely the problem, Ila.” Nanami groaned as she tried her best not to allow her frustrations to become too loud in public. Whether she liked it or loathed it, she did reflect her father. If her complaints became tabloid fodder, it would be a headache for everyone.

“The Survey Corps main priority is to learn about the monsters, but we’ve never had much luck. That’s why everyone in Pansozo is laughing at us. We have to redouble our efforts…”

[…]

“Geez. They’re loud.” Kimi commented as she elbowed her best friend in the ribs and looked over at Miji and Fire.

“Yeah. Don’t you just hate it when idiots bicker in public?” Sama tilted his head.

“It’s annoying.” Kimi agreed.

District 3

-Small Town-

The air was fresh. Good; it made days in front of the hot forge go quicker. Shipper stood over an anvil, striking a long strip of metal. He was one of many tradesmen in the small town, helping to keep parts good for the use of farmers in the great agrarian plains of District 3. He was still fairly young, but despite this his skills were sharp. Having assisted his dad as a child nearly every day, being a blacksmith came naturally to him.


---

"..." Jericho sighed slightly, looking up from his work. He was one of the very few machinists that lived in town. He was responsible for a lot of machinery, what few there was in District 3. He thought he'd rather be in District 2, perhaps, where his job would be more useful. But he had grown up in 3 under his father, one of the town's better doctors. He couldn't just leave.

Besides, he didn't have a lot of money. Despite the silence of his shop, he had a feeling he'd be joined soon enough.

Cadet Training Facility

As Fire and Miji argued, a woman with purple hair was sitting on the ground, facing away from them. Her face scrunched up and she growled before letting herself lie down, not giving a single care about dirt or bugs in her long ponytail. She took her glasses off her face and started playing with the handles, twirling them around in her fingers. Strobe didn't have many people to talk to, and she liked it that way.



Another young lady was all the way at the other side of the field. She was standing on her toes while trying to balance an arrow on her head. She had fairly good balance from having to be taught how to walk properly when she lived in District I. However, with every time the arrow fell, Shimera believed that the balance she had as an aristocrat was not the same balance she would have as a cadet. She rubbed her chin and tapped her foot.

Balance was extremely important, it was the subject that stuck to her brain since she was a little girl. It probably wasn't as important for her weapon choice, which was only good for ranged attacks. Someone with better use of balance than her would be someone who uses a large, brutal and heavy weapon, like a great-sword or a war hammer.

She shrugged and tried again, over and over.



"I'm confident we'll get it all figured out!" another girl cheered as she walked toward Ila and Nanami. KxS brushed some hair out of her face and crossed her arms. "These monsters can't remain a mystery for too long. We just have to keep pushing forward!"


District II

Streets

In the bustle of people, a chestnut-skinned person with a strange hair-do and ripped sleeves walked about with their hands in their pockets. The subject racing through this kid's mind was what to call themself. Kids at school called them "he-she" and "shemale" in their younger days.

They smirked. "Shi. I like that one, shi and hir," they thought.

From henceforth, Emory was no he, nor a she, but a shi. Shi preferred it like that. And thanks to a letter shi got in the mail today, she was on her way to the Cadet Corps to become a soldier!

Though it was probably better to keep hir revelation in hir head when shi got there.

(pretty sure that's going to get me in a heap of trouble but no one said anything during the sign-ups so yeah)

[Cadet Training Facility]

Normally, The cadet training facility was full of life of one sort or another, always full of some sort of activity. Whether it was new cadets in drills, whether it was an exhibition, or some form of military exercise, the most skilled at one point gathered in this facility and then went on their way to one of the four Corps.

And normally, there was a very controlled feel about it, a sort of held poise about everyone here, a firm grip on everything that happened inside.

Well, all that normality flew right out the window as a loud whoop came from the direction of one of the walls as a red-yellow-black blur came spinning like a top over the wall at speeds that exceeded anything that was conventionally safe. It looked like a rocket fired from a launcher, spinning rapidly and yelling a very definitive and loud "WHEEEEEE!!!" as he flew over the outer barricade like a bullet and went on to fly towards the main building at high speeds.

However, he never quite reached it. Two steel wires shot out from the form as it flew, one straight forward and much faster than its own flight, latching into the outer wall of the main building, the other latching into the wall the blur passed over a few seconds ago. But it continued to spin, "winding" the ropes together like a braid as it went, finally snapping both taut, and stopping the flight of the blur in its tracks. That's when a third steel wire shot out and latched onto one of the tall posts around the academy building used in practice runs for the 3-D gear, and the result was the fall of the shape straight downwards, arresting any sideway momentum using the third point of tension as the figure tumbled through the air like a rapidly-spinning top...

And coming to a perfect still right in front of Nanami, hanging upside-down with the head at just about eye-level, as the form revealed itself to be a rather lightly dressed redheaded boy with an insufferable grin on his face.

"Oya! You, miss black-hair-what'syournumber! Uhhh... Can you remind me where the office is? I gotta turn in a report, a map and a few other things, and I completely forgot where the office is. And uhhh... I don't want to get lost in the wrong wing of the facility again."

As he hung there, the rope started to slowly unwind, causing the redhead to start spinning slowly in the air as the ropes un-braided.

[Cadet Training Facility]

As a figure came tumbling down from the sky and ended up hanging upside down just in front of Nanami’s face, she looked extremely annoyed. She had never flinched as he appeared suddenly, although she did now have a knife in her hand – drawn the moment she had a inkling that something was wrong.

Staring at the upside-down male, Nanami gritted her teeth and slid the knife back onto her belt. Tempted as she was to put it to use, she recognized him as a fellow member of the Survey Corps.

“… You don’t remember where the office is? I see the Survey Corp emblem on your jacket. You’d think someone whose job is to venture out beyond the wall and SURVEY the area would have a sense of direction.”

Her crimson eyes narrowed into dangerous slits. “This is exactly the kind of incompetence that has kept the Survey Corps from achieving our true mission. From the casual way you speak to the idiotic way you’re just hanging there, you’re clearly not taking things very seriously.”

She clenched her fist, but then stopped, closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened them again, she gave her best fake-smile. “Here’s some advice. First of all, learn your way around this base before you even think of going past the wall. Two, consider whether or not you’re actually qualified to work for the Survey Corps, or if you’d be better off as a janitor or a farmer. Thirdly, don’t waste my time again.”

Lavan nodded sagely, as if he agreed with the girl completely, never losing that insufferably happy-looking grin that was on his face, eyes still open and honest as he continued to lazily spin in mid-air, fully appearing like some sort of circus loony. Quite unperturbed, he just turned his attention elsewhere.

"Mm-hmm. Okaaaaay, from now on I'll make sure not to ask you, miss frosty."

He continued to lazily spin until he spun to turn to the dark-skinned girl, still grinning like a loony.

"Could I get an answer from you then? Since miss frosty over there seems to be happy to verbally harass newbies, I gotta look for direction elsewhere. And I REALLY don't wanna be too late for Old Man Sensei's timetable. That's just bad for general mental well-being."

He spun another few lazy circles, losing and regaining sight of the girl he was talking to several times in the process.

"It's kinda important, yeah? Soooo... A little help here?"

District III

-Small Town-


Streets

Galv and Lily were outside, racing around the streets as they looked for other children around their age...



Samuel tended to do lots of odd jobs. He, Levina, and their children lived outside of town, a few miles away in a house separate from everyone else in the town.

“There you go, that should fix it,” Samuel said to an older lady, who smiled and nodded at him. The woman's roof had developed a leak, and Samuel had gotten it patched up.

“Thank you so much Mr. Hawkins. Your father was always so helpful too,” the old lady said to him.

Jericho's Workshop

He would have announced his presence if he could, but that was near impossible considering the myriad of circumstances.

Paul walked into Jericho's shop, waving his hands to catch the other boy's attentions.

“Hey Jericho,” Paul signed once he caught Jericho's attention, “Just me right now. Edda says he has stuff to do with the military right now.”

Pavilion

A small wagon came up in the pavilion, driven by a woman with glasses and long blonde hair. Next to her was her daughter, who took after her in looks.

Loralee and Aiden Fayre stopped their wagon with some others, getting out for now.

-Cadet Training Facility-

Ila opened her mouth to address Kxs, stopping when Lavan made an appearance.

It was... interesting, to say the least. She had heard of Lavan, of course, but hadn't really met him yet.

“That way, it's the building over there,” Ila said, pointing towards a larger building, away from the training grounds.



“Hey, have you two seen my brother?”

Hammah walked towards Kimi and Sama, rubbing the back of his head, “He said he was going to meet me here, but I can't seem to find him...”

District II

-Streets


“Ummm... who are you looking for?” Aboy asked, now conscious about blinking and trying not to lest this girl get even more confused and strange, “Name wise? I am Doctor Aboy.”

District Two

Chloe needed to get better about which windows she climbed through...

"You picked the wroooong house to rob, lady!”

Chloe tumbled through the rest of the window, lading with a soft thump on the floor. She was instantly met with by a girl with a mean look and a hammer....Yeah...She needed to pick better escape windows.

"H-Hey! I'm not trying to rob anyone!" Chloe exclaimed...Despite the fact that her pockets were full of stolen cash.... "I'm hiding! Now shush before I get found!"

Kinda pushy for a girl who just BROKE INTO SOMEONE'S HOUSE.

District Three

Streets

Melanie followed Jason closely as they walked down the dirt road that would eventually lead into town. Right now it was mostly just fields and the occasional cluster of houses or barns, nothing much to look at.....And yet Melanie found it all amazing. Because she wasn't allowed out often she hadn't experienced many of the sights and sounds of where they lived...The girl watched a heard of cattle as they grazed....Some ducks fly by....And even-

"Kids" Melanie said suddenly, pointing over by a house they were walking past.

Jason blinked. "Uh yeah, there are some who live around here. That girl and boy go to my school I think...Though they're way younger.

"They look my age" Melanie said with a smile. "Can we go say hi?"

Jason paused but shook his head. "We gotta keep going, i'm not even sure how long you can stay out in this heat"

"I'll be fine! Momma said I could go outside for school didn't she?"

Jason groaned "No Mel, we're no stopping. I need to get to the training facility"

Melanie frowned, pouting a bit. She then wiped a bit of sweat from her head "I'm feeling a little dizzy big brother"

Jason couldn't help but to raise a brow "Really? Or do you just wanna play?"

"No really! I think I need some water....Maybe they have some in that house they're playing near?"

Jason groaned, wishing he had packed provisions. "Fine, come on...Before you pass out or something"

They walked towards the house...

Lavan spun to face Ila again, snapping off a smart, upside-down salute.

"Sweet! Thanks! I owe ya one, maybe a drink sometime!"

And with that, he hit his side, there was a sudden revving sound and a loud snap, and Lavan was YANKED towards the third line as he released the clamps on the other two tension lines, suddenly losing the lines that held him in the air, but accelerating towards the third one as the other two flipped in the air like a rather deadly-looking helicopter blade, unwinding exceptionally quickly and pushing Lavan's body in a counter-rotation that allowed him to stabilize in mid-air and accelerated him down the last line, as the line itself shortened and the boy basically skimmed the ground like a spinning top before shooting further up into the air using that one last line as a point of reference, slinging himself towards that last building right in between the branches of a tree.

He made a perfect rolling landing on the roof of the office building, and used one of the lines to abseil down the side of the building and into the open window of Old Man Sensei's office, releasing the clamp and snapping the line back into his gear as he rolled into the window, coming to another precise roll that took him to right in front of the old man's desk, kneeling on one knee, grinning.

"Boo-yeah."

District 3

-Small Town-

Jericho's Workshop

Jericho smiled slightly, glad his assumption was right. He waved a glove hand when he noticed he had been joined by Paul. He began to move his hands in response - signing away at a rapid pace, punctuated with grand, sweeping gestures.

"That so? He's braver than I am. The military machine always seemed constantly busy - dealing with whatever is beyond is not really something I'm suited for." He removed his cap and invited Paul to take a seat nearby.

"Seems like the day's going by well enough, right? Nothing too bad. I haven't been called out to make any fixes." Jericho did enjoy his profession, even though the amount of work he had was always little.

District 1

-Aristocratic Manor-

A man deliberately bumped into Claire. Roy Mustang had arrived at the party, mainly out of personal aspirations. To become powerful, you had to be with powerful people. And a high ranking military official in the Elite with a war-hero background was always hungry for a good promotion - being at something ritzy like this would surely improve his chances of getting noticed.

He looked at Claire. "Oh sorry, ma'am." He said. He was wearing his military attire along with a long black coat that hung loosely on his shoulders. The only thing missing was his peaked cap. Something he didn't really wear often. "I didn't see you there. Colonel Roy Mustang." He held out a gloved hand to shake.

But he knew exactly who she was; Gallic's friend. One of his many friends in the upper rungs of society.

“So I think that was Lavan. I heard he's got the top marks on using the 3D maneuvering gear,” Ila mentioned to Nanami, “He'd probably be on the list if you wanted to put together a squad of top performers.”



“One of these days I'm going to brick up the window just to see what you'll do,” Old Man Sensei said idly, peering at some paperwork. “Oh, what am I saying, you'd just blow it up and get brick dust all over my nice desk.”

-Jericho's Workshop-

Paul nodded.

“Yah, everything's been pretty quiet lately. Edda says that the Survey Corps have been feeling some pressure lately to get a big mission accomplished. He's been having to scout over the walls a lot.”

While Lavan was one of the best in manipulating the 3D Gear, Edda tended towards the top with basic survival skills outside of the walls. He also tended less to explode things, which was half the fun for Lavan.

-Streets-

As Jason and Melanie started across the street, two red headed kids suddenly made a beeline for them.

“Hello!” Lily said, stopping in front of them, smiling, “My name is Lily, and this is my brother, Galv!”

Galv nodded a little, behind Lily.

District I

-Aristocratic Manor-

Claire frowned a little at Mustang, but nodded to him.

“Claire Douglas,” she said, seeming to simply ignore his apology and shook his hand, “You're part of the Elite corps.”

It wasn't a question, she was simply stating the fact, staring at him with her oddly cold blue eyes, “Are you here as security, or simply to mingle, Colonel Mustang?”

There was one thing Mustang would be wrong about. The amount of people the King counted as a friend was only three...

"Hee-hee." Lavan raised a hand, v-for-peace openly shown as he stuck out his tongue at the old man.

"You got it right, old man. I absolutely LOVE windows! The view out of them isn't too bad, you can open them for fresh air, AND they can be used as impromptu entrances. They are a most epic addition to modern construction."

He got up from his kneeling position and stretched, before walking up to the old man's desk and putting a sheaf of papers on it.

"The new maps. I did a little over-flight in sectors C-7, C-8, D-7 and D-8. Most of the landscape there remains untouched, but there were some signs of recent tearing on some of the trees. I'm not sure if it;s true monster activity or not, but it's sector C. Pretty darn close to home, so it might be something to look into. I also saw something in the distance in sector C-9, looked like large spiderwebs covering one of the smaller trees, but I couldn't be sure without getting closer, and I'm not stupid enough to do that solo."

He pointed to the maps he had.

"Here and here. I mapped the area as much as I could from above without getting myself too noticed, and I don't think anything saw me. Well... Either that, or I'm dead, and this is the afterlife, and that would REALLY suck."

Now becomes the the past in an instant — and everyone will eventually die! Destiny triumphs over human knowledge and goes mad! That is the way of things! I spit upon this frail, crazed, world! I spit upon the Second Law of Thermodynamics!
~ Desty Nova, Karmatron Theory

Let them Label me! Let them swear and curse at me as I tug humanity like a bucking bull into the darkness of the unknown, revealing its secrets to the sane and driving them MAD! In ages long past, I shall be looked upon as a tyrant and a savior! As a savant and as a fool! My work shall advance humanity long past its time, throw it into the unknown future and force it to grow strong or FALL! Years from now, when I will inevitably be removed, my work shall continue to progress, because these things cannot be denied! Governments will publicly criticize my work, but privately conduct research that advances it! I shall imprint myself into the annals of history, among the stars that shine as brightly as Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, Dmitri Mendeleev, Nikola Tesla, and countless others! My work will shine as brightly as any star, and I AM ITS CREATOR!!!
