The Trumpet
If you find this, it means you are investigating the end and my part in it. I swear I am just a normal guy. Really there isn’t anything special about me. I mean, except for the possibility that I am the soul of a ten-thousand-year-old warrior of Hell, and I might have caused the apocalypse. Maybe I should back up a little bit because that makes me sound like the bad guy in this story. Not that I am the good guy, but I only did what I had to in order to protect my family. What would you have done? You don’t realize it but, you would have made the choice like I did. To kill you all.

“As-salamu alaykum!”, a familiar greeting in the Middle East meaning “peace be upon you.” I gave and received this greeting a thousand times while I was overseas with the Marine Corps in 2008. It was just about the only thing I knew how to say. Everything else was a low form of sign language that often made me look like an uneducated ape. Regardless of the language barrier I managed to explore some markets from time to time and came across some interesting foods.
