Home again, home again...
The daily grind complete, it's now time to get down to the things that really matter. I spend all day working as the gatekeeper for people's finances, little do they know that after hours, I hold the fate of worlds in my hands. Slayer of demons, destroyer of worlds, I alone am the key to the salvation of millions. If only they knew the power I wield while not asking them how they would like their cash.
Just last week, the world was quietly redeemed by my heroic efforts, travelling the globe and discovering the truth behind the treasure of Marco Polo. With a few loyal (and not so loyal) friends by my side, and a regular rogue's gallery at my back, the world was saved from a megalomaniac bent on seizing the greatest power the world has ever known...and I got the girl...
Not long before, I and my stalwart crew on the Normandy were once again sent across the galaxy on a suicide mission to bring peace to the galaxy. Many brave souls were lost in the constant fray, but their souls lived on and gave us strength, propelling us to our final showdown with the lethal renegade Spectre known as Saren. At times, we maybe made choices considered ill-advised, but they were all in the service of the greater good.
One stormy evening, I stalked my psychotic prey through the decrepit catacombs of Arkham Island. Every blind corner a threat, all in my path brought me one step closer to my arch-nemesis. Through sheer will, determination and cunning, I left many in my wake. Driven by desire for justice, fueled by vengeance. By dawn, I emerged victorious. My foe defeated once more.
Over the weekend, I even found time to step into the shoes of the other side and started to stage my own taut prison break from the amoral, sinister depths of Butcher Bay. So far, I've learned that none can be trusted and all are against me. I have yet to find my way into the Pit, but if the night is truly darkest before the dawn, I look forward to blazing my trail through the dark to ultimate freedom.
If only my colleagues and customers knew the ways I keep them and countless others safe from harm, they would thank me. I would be hoisted over their shoulders and proclaimed a hero.
...or they would just tell me that maybe I should just get over being dumped and meet someone new...
