He sat thinking, "always."
As he runs away from his problems, his 'unforgivable' life.
He finds a library, finally. Solace.
Books, the one thing he cold understand without second guesses, without having to worry about lies, hurt, betrayal.

A fantasy, a real-life story.
A world Koris hopes is true every minute he lives in it, pleading each day it won't disappear or be taken away from him. He takes on a duty, he lies, he uses magic to make right wrong, justifying his actions.
