May this book bear witness to my defection from the light. I am no longer one of the weak, no longer one of those who follow Asheron's ways. I make this choice of my own volition, embracing the ultimate freedom that is the birthright of all living beings. I cast even my name to the wind - no shackle shall hold my identity.

----

I have chosen my path - the path of the strong. I do not follow some defeated power, as Bael'zharon was defeated. Nay - my allegiance is only to the strong, to that which will lead me to triumph!

----

I remember hearing of my master for the first time. The thrill which ran through me...ah, as only power can thrill! I knew, though those who spoke of my future master spoke in enmity, that I had found truth in this world at last. The only truth in this world is strength, and there is no greater strength.

----

Only my master can claim to be so strong. Those who follow the teachings of Isin Dule, they live a lie. They will be swallowed whole! They will be consumed as this paper is consumed by fire!

----

The call! Oh, how they speak of the call which led us to this world, but another calls me. I cannot ignore it, nor do I want to! A call to ruin! A call to greatness!

----

Why do they resist? I watched it all, watched the armies break. Some died forever...eaten. Fuel for my great master! Some were fortunate...changed despite themselves, given the gift I seek. Some were slain for the sake of slaughter. But none were allowed to escape.

----

I feel insubstantial. I drift. I will no longer be what I am soon. I embrace the last moments of an old life and the beginning of a new existence.
