Nobody said it was going to be easy.
well, someone implied it.
But they were wrong.
 
Every battle with the demons feels like a trial of the soul.
     If you lack strength, they will tear you apart.
          If you have fear in your heart, they feast on it and become stronger.

And if you lose hope for even a second, you'll be overcome with despair and crushed all the same.
Tyranny taught me that.

We've lost so many.

                                                             The knights with honor that I looked up to.
Aeolus. Atlas. King Alexander.



Two Years.
That's how long he said we have before the rest of us are wiped out entirely. Before our way of life is crushed under the heel of Helheim to usher in a new era.
And as I sat at my favorite fishing spot wrapped in bloody bandages with a shattered blade at my side and stared out into the ocean, I started to think that he might be right.

The Angels are watching from above.
And you are too, aren't ya'?
But this is a mess that humanity got itself into. A tragedy that we failed to stop and prevent.

An uprising that determination and optimism alone cannot overcome.

So many of our own have lost hope.
I can see it in their eyes.
Mother rests in your shrine, praying that we return home safe from every patrol.
Cless and Berrios are becoming stronger every day, but it won't be enough.
Lillia's strength and willpower rivals my own.
Her resolve and the support of our friends and allies is what keeps me going.


And that's the key to it all, right? 
To keep pushing forward. To keep growing out and up.
To reach for the stars.

I will.
With Syth's embrace from the cosmos above, I'll become the light that this chronicle of Esshar so desperately needs.
So that when we finally do meet, be it in this life or the next, you'll be proud of me.
Until then, sit back and enjoy the show.
Oh, and as always,
Hic Sunt Leones.
