From the depths of the abyss to the creaking light, the path is long, But the hero must exemplify courage and must be strong,

To overcome the foreboding evil inside, And only let the goodness be your guide.

Once filled with malice, anger, and hate, The protagonist walks though the guardians gate,

A heart consumed by darkness and fear, And every soul that crossed, he did jeer.

But one day, a glimmer of light he saw, Shone in the darkness, so bright, in awe.

He saw a profound new way, And he knew he could not delay.

With every step, the light grew strong, The darkness fled, so he could hear the song,

A nostalgic feeling of hope, love, and joy, And the protagonist knew he must employ,

POETICAL QUOTE

"You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

— Hervey Dent

His newfound strength to right his wrongs, And with every deed sought, his journey forlong,

An path of redemption, salvation, and grace, A promise that led him to a better place.

Now he knows and walks with courage and pride, With every step, he feels the brimming light inside,

He reaches out to those in dire need, And with every act of kindness, he plants a seed,

A seed that blooms and flourishes into a garden of love, And the savior knows he was sent from above,

To transition from evil to unyielding good, And to show the world that goodness should,

Be the guiding light that leads the way, And with every step, he lives to say,

That even those who once walked the earth in sin, Can turn from spite and let the righteous win.
