《Philosophers corner》She’s gone, it’ll be fine.

[Redacted],
It’s funny because I didn’t realize that my first bar night would end with us out on my roof talking about believing in god. I’ve got loads of history, family and otherwise with the Lord, enough were I felt forsaken, and over the years I’ve come to that realization most people might come to. I’m not the one to truly believe in God, I think there’s something there but I’ve decided I didn’t need that entity in the back of my mind, in my corner as you would. If my addled memory serves me you mentioned something like.. you believe, and everything is for a reason? I’m trying to wrap around my head that if things happen as you say, how come the two of us rowdy assholes were sitting on my roof! I’ve got that feeling you might’ve just needed someone to express that belief to, and honestly you might’ve came to a knowledgeable person for it, not to say I gave any useful advice the very opposite transpired in fact! I think things happen for reasons untold, lessons learned, friends and enemies found, relationships made and broken. In my honest opinion, I’ve always felt the things happening for reasons were always in our own hands, made from our brains and passed out like candy to every sorry SOB that hit us up on a Saturday night. Choices. Choices and consequences, and if you can live with both of those things that you created then truly you’ll get through tough times. Having a belief in something isn’t weakness, it takes a crazy amount of conviction to truly be a believer and I think you’ve got the guts for it and the mind to wrap your head around those things, but I know I’ll be asking God why we sat on a roof while your leg bled out when I see him for sure.

Apollyon's Curse
Within the pages of folklore and fantasy, tales of people who chase after the dream of eternity, of living forever, rarely find a happy ending. They are either struck by the grim truth of reality, give up, and return to mortality or face a ghastly realization of their wishes. The latter often the worse fate, as they come to realize, only far too late, that what they sacrificed was worth far more than the time they gained. Ultimately, the common thread in these stories is that “immortality is as much a curse as it is a blessing”. People either realize it early and give up or are doomed to inevitably face its consequences. In the world Enrich lives in, that saying does hold merit. Every pathway towards eternal life has shackles of its own. They bring those high above down to the ground, evening the playing field. It is thanks to these fundamental laws that ambitious mortals are able to defy the heavens and achieve immortality themselves. The variety of methods result in each of these bindings varying in intensity and degree of freedom. Enrich’s path doesn't break this trend. Though, after what he did to himself, most wouldn’t even consider him a living thing anymore. On the day of his ascension, a world’s worth of souls were melted and recast. On that day, the human’s path had reached its conclusion, recast into Apollyon. An artifact, a weapon, is eternal, after all. As for the curse? The payment will be made, as it must. So why not offload the curse to someone else? Mortals throw their lives away for all manner of petty reasons, noble or otherwise, especially in desperation. Eventually, someone will be willing to foot the bill. Most will if given the chance. The bait is far too tempting, after all. Power, status, knowledge. All at their fingertips. If only they say “yes”. And Apollyon is very willing to help any lost souls. If they give up everything in return, of course.
