Day 242

From the moment he could move his arms and legs individually from one another, he was a threat to all around him.
Born with the preternatural ability and instincts to inflict pain, he was more monster than man.
So, in order to make himself less of a threat, this would be monster weakened himself.
Each day serves as an opportunity to lessen himself. Dull his blades, gather rust upon his mettle.
Simply put: he disarms himself.
Like an addict banishing their vice, the man was a model of abstinence.
In time, he might even become truly helpless.
Unless something should disturb this self imposed exile.
Let us hope that never happens ...
