The man formerly known as Will Armstrong was many things in his lifetime. lover, father, musician, soldier, fighter, murderer… I am all that is left of him, the last remaining shred of sanity in an empty husk of a man. I am the monster who strikes the children of my host for reminding him of ones he killed before. I am the terror that awakens at the mere sound of a siren; convulsing the body and having him scream out in terror a faces of those killed flash before his eyes. I am his sanity.
