PROLOGUE
PEOPLE WILL SAY I’M crazy. Evil. All manner of things, I suppose.
But then, people always say bad things like that about great artists and men of vision.
I do not care. I do not listen to them.
I know my purpose, and once it’s fulfilled, I can go.
Twelve. There must be twelve. No more, no less, or the dream won’t be properly realized.
It might take some time. I know all too well the perfect twelve will have to be sought out.
I will know the twelve when I see them.
And I will make them mine.
