Residents of Crystallis,

Or would you prefer "Heroes of Light" as you're so carelessly named? This letter is not written as means to forward the overzealous need to celebrate a holiday only a few have sentiments for.

If we all share the same goal in resisting The Calamity, then I would be happy to oblige. This unified movement is imperfect, however, as not even Crystallis' divided nations can seem to agree to disagree and work together in spite of different values. I'm writing this letter because it would benefit us more to focus on the challenge at hand instead of celebrating festivities. The odds are unfavorable, but not yet deemed impossible.

The sooner we deal with this threat, the sooner we can return. Who here shares similar beliefs?

Fellow Heroes of Light.

In my time spent here, it has become apparent to me that our future is grim. I have heard of the past cycles and of what happened before my arrival. Palitutu manipulating all of us to achieve her goals, Garland's ambition to have the cycle begin anew and the idea offered by Kalki to become the Calamity so as to create a new world.

Yet, I have seen none of you giving in to despair. At the contrary. In spite of all the hardships and trials you have faced, I have seen more hope and happiness among you than I have among the people in my homeworld. As a physician specialized in psychology, I find this fascinating.

Thus my question: how do you envision the ending to this story? Do you agree with the ideals pursued by the aforementioned people, or do you believe there is an alternative to their designs?

"Heroes of Light",

Wouldn't you say it's a commendable effort recruiting this many people in a singular plight to protect the world from Calamity? Not just this world, but by extension our own, too. Who or whatever is behind this is quite impressive, collecting dozens, if not, a hundred heroes. I wasn't aware such power existed to this degree.

This god complex of the responsible party overstepped boundaries, and you're no different if you take ownership of the title granted to you by this facadé. What entitles you to think, if you comply, you'll be returned, or heroic? Or do all heroes believe what they're told? By serving, are you convinced you're doing justice?

Changes don't magically happen, and blood will spill in this civil strife against the painted enemy, but you must have already consented to that if you think yourself to be a hero.

[ The letter has no close. ]
