This book might not be for you.It would be irresponsible to write a synopsis without saying that first. That’s not a marketing ploy. It’s not a gimmick to catch your intrigue. There’s no convoluted political reasoning for the trigger warning other than genuine empathy for you as a human being. I’m saying it like a doctor trying to write a prescription for what ails you. This book will probably be like medicine for some people. It will open up new ways of thinking, help you empathize with more people, and give you better insight into your own personal demons. For others, this book will be like poison.I don’t pull punches and I wrote this book to tear the scars off your heart. Start to finish, this book is meant to knock the wind out of you. So if your heart is already bleeding, and you’re trying to catch your breath, please leave it be and come back another time.That being said...Thirteen demons of the Family have come to destroy the World.

If a human should choose virtue over vice and overcome their darkest desires, only then can the Family die. It will fall to Seth, Monument of the Full Knowing Choice of Evil, to decide the ultimate Fate of the World. Seth has to answer a single question to save the world.
