You have to cross the barrier if you want to live. You have to face death, welcome it, want it, and without fear. It's the only way.

Those who face fear itself become warriors of an unstoppable kind. Few are able to become one. First, one must loose their purpose for living. Second, one must mourn. This period can last for ages. When the time is right, you accept it. Either you move on, or you face danger with a hollow soul, willing to die. So few make it that now the government purposely creates them--or at least they try. What happens when one man/woman is subjected to these horrors? Will he/she move on, ascend, or die?
