The Beginning of the End
I can't stress enough the importance of my story, the history in this book needs to be understood. I write now in the 31st Century, the year is 3032 to be exact. My story is one of friendship, brotherhood, adventure, war, paranoia, distrust, evil, and finally betrayal. The truth is, I'm not even sure this book will be allowed in corporate space. You won't know my name, in fact, I am more likely to be able to distribute this book if my name is hidden, but I write from the planet Akikon, my paradise world. Many will know its name because of me. Once I was quite famous, most of you are alive because of me and more importantly the work of my former friend, a man I had such a bond with, I called him my brother.
The Owner was once my friend, my brother; he is the one who owns it all, the one who manufactured our corporate "utopia". What is most frightening about him, is not necessarily the dark evils I have seen him commit, but more that in all my 10,030 years, there has not been another individual, or group, that has been able to rival his strategic genius, deceptive ability, improvisation, and his ruthless indomitable will to achieve whatever he desires. The Owner is the most powerful man to have ever lived, and probably ever will live. So, let us begin, we shall start on the day I met him, but not in the way you'd expect.
