I knew from the first time I questioned him that he was a
fraud, a liar, a con artist. And eventually, he blinked first.
But when I tried to bring him to justice, instead of ending
up with his head on a pike, he was pushed out before the masses and declared
the Great Hero that would save us from the Encroaching Storm.
I was ‘fortunate’ enough to be chosen to tag along with him
as he strode forth and stood up to the universe, to give the people some (vain,
useless) hope, apparently.
And then the universe blinked first.
