By Strength And Guile

I was once a bored man in a world where everything made too much sense.

Now I met a blue firefly in a weird dream while falling down the sky with a Siri-impersonator in my ear.

The voice claimed my life warranty for me apparently, cuz next thing I know, I got a lot of things going for me that were not before. Also, couple of things that most certainly were going for me no longer was.

How on bloody Earth am I to look a guy in the face and tell him, honest to god, that I am the ruler of an island literally not a single being has been to, and not have him laugh at my face? Well, some questions do not need answers. I intend to leave that question unanswered for a long while yet.

Well, whatever happens at the unknown, at least I can say that I ain't gonna be bored!

I ain't got a name yet, but be assured, reader mine, even in the unknown, where none before me have survived, by hook or by crook (that doesn't sound right, is there a better way to say that?) I shallthrive.
