Chad was an orphan who grew up in the slums.

He had always struggled his whole life, considering life on the streets wasn't a very easy one for anyone.

He struggled to eat a single meal, and as the years passed he found himself growing even more aggressive in his pursuits for power.

One couldn't fault a child who grew up in such an environment for seeking more power to guarantee his wellbeing.

And so, during his early teens, this young Chad found a Gate in an alleyway. He had heard many rumors about Gates and Dungeons, but this was the first time he ever saw one.

Captivated by its beauty, he reached out to touch it, unfortunately slipping into the portal's open door.

However, something miraculous happened as he traversed the bridge that connected the two separate dimensions.

He awakened!

Of course, as soon as he found himself in the Gate, he rushed out.

He reported the Gate and got money for his exploits. Thanks to the newly awakened power within him, and his surprisingly high affinity for Dimensional Energy, he finally had the means to obtain more power.

He used this method to awaken more people, and together they built what was now the current Shadows of Light and The Zenith.

Despite how far they had come, and how many atrocities had been committed as a result of their actions, in the end... it was simply birthed from the dreams of a very young boy.

A boy who simply sought to survive in a harsh and cruel world.

"You ask why I'm doing this. That's why." Chad concluded his story with a sullen tone. "I want to reshape the world into something more. Something better."

His face fell even further, and a defeated sigh escaped his lips.

"Sure, I did a lot of terrible things. I caused a lot of harm to people. But without my guidance and assistance, even more chaos would have been wrought."

Chad explained how The Zenith united the nations of the world, fostering more cooperation among everyone.

The Zenith also dealt with their fair share of Gates, and that the general casualty had reduced by a large margin compared to the old days.

In the end, his plans did more good than evil.

"It's all for a better world. Tell me, have you never had to make sacrifices for the greater good?"

With those words, Chad fell silent and stared at Aloe with his bright blue eyes.

Sincerity poured out of them, and the sadness locked within his irises could pull anyone in them.

"That's why..."
