"Today I remembered how I received a letter from the emperor himself. The man threatened to have me shot or imprisoned if I continued to write my novels. I write about the truth and the truth is not pretty. People are terrified of the truth and try their best to hide it. The experienced know that everyone has a shadow side. Thoughts so dark and morbid that dwell in the subconscious unexplored in so many. Why does it remain so unexplored? Everyone has their own dark little secret. Even the emperor." - Might
