time plagues our existence.
it's what causes death, decay, dust; but it's what moves us forward. it's a drug we cannot give up; the water we drink to survive but also the ocean that will drown us.

this war began a long time ago. it is waged in a world that likes to see things in binary terms: good, evil; black, white; truth, lies. but this is a battle beyond those things, beyond a spectrum of simplicity. was good ever right? was evil ever wrong? who is the enemy? what will happen when the lines between right and wrong blur?

↪︎ "we are all just freakshows, waiting to perform."
↪︎ "the truth is, good cannot exist without evil. the two must balance each other out, opposite sides of a coin: twin heads of a two-faced serpent, equal weights on either end of a scale. and when the balance is tipped, the extreme and impossible will be conceived."
↪︎ "this is a story of the fight for colour in a world where everything is viewed in black and white."
