Where am I?

What is this place?

Is that the question you always ask?

Who is that?

Who are you?

Where are you?

Why am I here?

…So many questions.

Huh?

…Does it matter?

What does an answer do to a question…?

Huh? I ask to get the answer.

An answer to satisfy my need for information.

…Is that so?

…Do you solely ask questions in order to satisfy yourself?

Isn’t that right?

I wouldn’t ask if I were satisfied already.

…So, you claimed to know nothing.

Argh, just answer the question already! Who are you?

…Do you wish for an answer for nothing?

Or do you wish for an answer of everything…?

You.

I am You…

…And also Myself.

I am your friend…

…And also your enemy.

I am a Winner…

…And also a Loser.

I am your Father…

…And also your Mother.

I am your Son…

…And also your daughter.

I am your Savior…

…And also your Enslaver.

I am the Peace…

…And also the Suffering.

I am the Fool..

…And also the Absurdity.

I am the Dreamer…

…And also the Vanity.

I am the Pillar…

…And also the Broken.

I am the Beauty…

…And also the Ugly.

I am the Just…

…And also the Tyrant.

I am the Knowledge…

…And also the Ignorant.

I am the True…

…And also the False.

I am the Brave…

…And also the Coward.

I am your Strength…

…And also your Weakness.

I am the Enlightened…

…And also the Lost.

I am your Fortune…

…And also your Doom.

I am the Truth…

…And also the Lie.

I am the Selfless…

…And also the Selfish.

I am the Death…

I am your Conviction…

I am the Beginning…

…And also the End.

I am Nothing…

…And also Everything.

…

You are Nothing.

…And you are Everything.

You are Everything.

…And you are Nothing.

Therefore, This is Nothing…

…And also Everything.

Therefore, You are here for Nothing…

…And also for Everything.

…

If so, If I am here for Everything, Then I have no reason to be here.

If I have Nothing here, Then I have every reason to be here.

…Yes.

You have everything here…

…Yet you have nothing to do here.

You lacked a point.

You are in the Open…

…Yet you are not able to Close.

However…

…You are not Me.

You are not Nothing…

…You are not Everything.

You…

…Are something.

You are you…

…And by the grace of Mine.

I am Ann.

It is the name of Mine.

…

…Between Everything and Nothing, lies a Purpose…

…You descent into the endless cloud.

The mighty hall awaits the calling…

…Take upon the mantle of the Fallen.

The second chance for this Conundrum…

…You shall complete it.

Remember the Past, do live the present, to prepare for the Future.

Do not falter…

…For I shall guide You.
