Title: Intro & Quotes
Brief Introduction: City is trying to discover the mystery of two identical books and their meaning. One morning, he’s deep in thought, questioning the truth and how it connects to him through his memories, thoughts, and words.
Well, City is on this mission because he’s got these two identical books that are messin’ with his head, and he’s feelin’ like there’s more to them than meets the eye. It’s like he’s on this quest to piece together a puzzle, and he’s hopin’ to uncover something profound about himself and the world around him. He’s just a curious kid, trying to figure out how these books connect to his own life and the lives of the people around him. You know, there’s magic in books, and City’s eager to unlock it.
So, in a way, he’s tryin’ to understand the bigger picture. The books are like keys, and he’s huntin’ for the doors they unlock. It’s about identity, family, and the history that shapes us. City feels this weight of legacy, and those books might hold the answers he’s lookin’ for. It’s about findin’ his place in the world, and maybe, just maybe, changin’ it for the better.

Kayden -" But the existence of at least two books was less confusing than the words in the books.
Maybe the book wasn’t a book at all, I thought."
Kayden - "Maybe the book was the truth."
Kayden - "If Baize wasn’t actually missing, but maybe just time traveling, that meant that Sooo Sad hadn’t really hurt her at all"
Kayden -"If it was the truth, I had to figure out what it had to do with me."
