Life is hunting. The true beast will never die—if it isn’t
killed. It’s very hard, and even more so to finish off an old beast,
or a truly ancient one whose killing would elevate you—without a Gift. Practically impossible. And the Gift exists only in the Abyss. In a sense, its dens are the beginning of the Path.
Stepping into the Abyss takes your first step. Stepping back with victory—your second and decisive one. I made both of them.
