He hasn't had the best life, in fact, some would argue that his life couldn't have been worse, but there's still hope, even for a nihilist.

Here one can conjure flames with words and summon thunderclouds with a shout, but it's not all fantasia and ecstasy. The world seemed peaceful enough, but as he learns more and more. He realizes everything he sees is a facade, and what's truly underneath is a civilization built on blood and war. In fact, the whole world is in a state of war, fueling the coming of Ragnarök.
Shifting my attention to the colonel, I would bare witness to a rather peculiar event. He was stood in the middle of a street, his enemies nowhere to be seen or heard. He did not seem to care for their whereabouts either. He simply began a stroll through the barren wasteland. As he did though, he would take off his helmet.

From a completely bare hand, diamonds would fracture from their flesh into many spikes. The barrage resembled a tidal wave, huge and unforgiving, crushing everything in its way.
