—KaineMy name is Kaine. And death was the only thing I'd ever known. I am a monster, but once...once I asked myself if things could be different. If now that I wasn't dying, I could truly live. That I could find a home. Friends. Love. I have my answer. Not every story has a happy ending. Not every sin can be redeemed. This is who I am. I'm done trying to be something I'm not. I'm done trying to be a hero.
