To him, suffering was never meaningless. Like the ancients, he regarded it as a sacrifice exchanged for the possibility of transcending the ordinary fate of mankind.

A being who had appeared within an algorithmic world for a single purpose—to break the system by choice.

All of that existed inside the mirror.

But was he himself ready to become that figure?
