Males are rare within our organisation, Lazare. The sexual imbalance - one to three, has presented the movement with an existential reckoning since Matsuda's own times. We welcome you openly.
A Zoner. A career criminal. An arms smuggler. A thief. Perhaps incepted into the world with good intentions, but with the lifestyle of a survivalist, one cannot be canny in their moral scruples. Yet you chose the path of enlightenment rather than the road to self profit freely and without alloyed intentions. You motivated yourself to find your own prophecy rather than merely provide an accessory to the shadow. Why? What whim pushes a man to be more than the destiny the universe has ordained for him?
All comes in time. Be at peace - your skills will find little rest with us, Lazare.
Yet another swallow flies from nest to roost. You will find home here.
