Hey. I'm Arlo Sarsons. If you're holding this book, I'm deeply sorry. You've clearly ignored all the warning signs. This isn't some fun little adventure where I learn life lessons and ride off into the sunset with a big heroic grin. Nah. This is the kind of story where things catch fire for no reason, mysterious people talk in riddles, and I end up in places that probably don't exist on Google Maps. There are monsters. Probably. Secrets? Definitely. And me? I'm just trying to stay alive long enough to figure out what the hell is going on. So if you're expecting something cheerful and heartwarming... maybe try literally any other book. Still here? Cool. But don't say I didn't warn you.

What if I don't want to be a hero, save your damn selves!! Has anyone ever asked a hero if they even like saving people? What if Wolverine just wanted to binge-watch Stranger Things, and not be the stranger thing? Imagine being the fastest man alive, only to arrive seconds too late to save a life. What if being a hero wasn't in their five-year plan? Who opts into risking their life and the lives of the people who mean the most to them- for the people who mean the least? Why do we demand those who are faster, stronger, or have unique abilities to bear the burden of life and death? Who among us, would willingly risk their own life simply because they possess the power to do so? What if heroes just wanted to live their lives, the way they planned or unplanned it. What the Author hopes? If only for one second or even just a small inkling. I somehow convinced you that the things I write about could exist. Then I accomplished my goal as a dope writer. ✍🏽 Blood Roots - "Just be glad I choose forgiveness.
