 This is as important as any story told before. It is the story of a brave and just heroine, one that I am proud and lucky enough to call a friend.

As this tale goes on, I understand that you may be tempted to feel sadness towards the characters. One must, however, comprehend that without these tragedies, our story would have been made useless. Each of my friends have confided in me that, while they feel grief over what has occurred, they do not regret what has happened. The end justified the means, as one is oft to say.

Now, I do not wish to scare you off. Every story must have an audience (Heaven knows that I am not writing this book for myself); I simply wish to warn you before you delve into our adventure. For, who knows what we would have given to know what our victory would have cost us.
