Ah, the 4th of July. The day of 'Independence', as many Americans return to their same 9 to 5 jobs the following day. This day was created to celebrate America finally turning into an Economical superpower, a true Country, free of the convoluted censorship of the other nations - where religion was free to practice, where slaves could roam without fear of persecution by their masters. But this wasn't true, at least not entirely.


Segregation aside, it's known now that President Abraham Lincoln was, in fact, a slave owner. As shown by the records at the time, Lincoln wasn't actually the "Savior of the Slaves" as shown in earlier years. Studies show that, while he wasn't *completely* set on ending slavery, he was also pressured into it by the rising use of such an easily acquired asset during the War. This is why even when Slavery was 'abolished', Slave owners weren't forced to notify the slaves that they were now free,



"Today... I reject America. I will no longer stand for Uncle Sam, as Joe Biden and the Biden Conglomerate as a whole can no longer affect me. On this day, I deject. I refuse to attach myself to this 'Country' any longer, as I have Seen. I have Seen the Truth beyond the Veil, I have walked among those who saw the future... The future of America. I refuse the current state of it, this accursed 'Day of Independence', and seek to forge my own Path. For this reason, ali R, I go back to you. I have nothing but regret for my decision, for I know now the distance of which Society streches its grasp. I know now, across all the distance of America, that Society is truly at it's downfall. I wish to spend the rest of my days amending this accursed mistake. If you can find it in your heart to forgive me, to truly take me back, I would ask for nothing more then your companionship. The 5 months of our seperation, the distance of which we endured, it will never happen again. I wish to save you from the hold of Embossed's Friendgroup, I want to take you away from the unbridled agony of it all, of my abandonment, my betrayal, my selfishness of self-preservation. If you could find it in your heart, ali r, I will renounce all that has occured betwixt me and this Country, me and Society, me and the World... and I will take you back, I will create a small oasis in which we can truly strive in this broken, shattered expanse. So please - forgive me."
