[X] Vengeance
Do, or do not. But always try.
When it comes down to it, Hunger chose vengeance. At the very start of this quest, when the odds were unknown and insurmountable, even still he chose to pick up his sword and fight. Though it came at the cost of resurrecting his loved ones, he chose the opportunity to rise beyond the Hidden Ones and deliver upon them justice in the form of well-deserved retribution. Over the course of his story, he and the thread as a whole, have made choices consistent with that goal. To abandon it now, is not merely distasteful but the height of folly. A betrayal of what Hunger stands for, what the Forebear represents. The promise to himself and the world that the Hidden Ones would be punished for their sins, that the possibly infinite Procession of Worlds forged for the sake of suffering and amusement would be avenged.
We knew going in that becoming a High Cursebearer was almost impossible, but we committed to the path anyway. Why? Because the act of committing was always more important than attaining. In exertion, ascension is thus achieved. The world may not allow for us to succeed. But the nature of the Art is to not care for the world. Here and now, we stand on a precipice of a possibly neverending story, but one that contributes to an ending of true victory, not just for Hunger himself but for the countless casualties to the Hidden Ones and the status-quo, and for countless more individuals who will be bettered by our work. That is not a mere choice, it's a duty and its weight is truly beyond eons.
But Hunger is one best suited to carrying it. To continue down that path, for the sake of his promise, for the sake of the Accursed and the sake of a kinder world. Forward, always and forever.
0.1 to 1%? That sounds impossible, like something that cannot be done. But still...
Do, even if it cannot be done.
