Chapter 1 - "The Architect of Frailty"

> I do not hate them.

Humans. Jinn. Demons. Angels.

They're all the same.

It doesn't matter what they're called, where they came from, or why they were created.

What I know is—they can all break. And I... I just want to know how.

Today, I carved the face of a small god who had fallen into the body of a child.

He said he was a guardian of dreams.

I asked, "Then tell me—does my pain belong to someone else's dream?"

He didn't answer. After five hours, I began to realize he wasn't crying from the pain—

but because he believed he wasn't supposed to feel anything at all.

Funny, isn't it?

They call me a monster.

But I have no fangs. No wings. I don't eat flesh.

I am not made of fire or light.

I am just a human.

Maybe that's the scariest part.

> "God never answered me. But the devil wept for me.

So I stopped praying.

And started opening them, one by one."
