I'm the young and dashing hero that lagged behind in their quest to slay the monsters, only to eventually stray off the angel's path entirely, step by step by step. When, after far too long, I finally looked up, I was halfway down the devil's road-- so I turned my face away from promises, put my back to the sun, and continued on with a maddened laugh and a lightness I'd not felt in much too long.
