Chapter 22: Judgments of causality
If something happened, there is bound to be a cause for it.
If someone dies, they must have been alive at some point. If someone is born, then they must have not been alive until then.
A farmer comes back to his home after a long day at the farm, tired and thirsty. He needs water to quench his thirst, however, when he reaches his home, he finds his entire hut caught on fire.
His farm animals are brutally cut down, killed by not the fangs of monsters but by the blades of his own kind.
Inside the burnt house, he finds his loving wife, her body charred beyond recognition. The eyes that somehow survived the fire contained the look of utter agony that shatters the farmer's heart and soul.
His child, not even a year old, now lay in his crib without the life he did not even get to live...
Something breaks inside of the poor farmer... a spark, a fire... rage overtakes the human body, turning the producer of life into a monster in human skin.
Now he is the one that kills, the one who burns the world in search of those who took his entire world away from him.
He walks the path of revenge, he walks the path of hatred, and the moment he archives his goal, the moment he burns down the ones who took away his world, he looks back...
Bloodstained hands, clothes that are the cleanest in the room... in his wake till that point, he has left the same agony, despair, and rage in the hearts of those who were not at fault.
It is now he who would be chased... It is now he who will be the object of revenge for a child, for a father, for a mother... for a wife.
