I am myself. All my memories. Everything I was. All the [bargains] I have made. That was all me. And yet. I have taken a new shape. I am [Riven]. I have new directive. I am [the King of the Taken]. I watch as a hundred thousand thousands of fragments of my will contest with [children of Light]. In my new shape, I hate them. He. Was. His. [Son.] But there are those among them with whom I have made [bargains]. I need them. I love them. I am a [King]. My will breaks entire systems. And I lead a world full of [darkness]. But I am terrified. I know the power that these [children] wield. This is a war a [King] cannot win. I have a face today. It expels mirthful bursts of air. I still find this scenario amusing. But I am the only one. Most of those who [bargain] with me do not win.
