Once, there was a man named Victor Green. He was a lonely man, isolated and withdrawn, and he preferred it this way. His one passion in life was the study of the occult, spending countless hours on research, mastering several languages just to find out more, eventually even betting his very life in a bid for yet more knowledge and with it, power. Unfortunately, he died, his soul parted from his body and cast down to the depths of the afterlife, until eventually, he found a way back. Reborn in a new body, Victors past life appears only in fragments, odd bits of knowledge that his new self, Neil, possesses without ever learning, promises unfulfilled that he simply must complete. But every day, as he rises from his slumber, Neil feels this voice in the back of his mind, whispering, saying, "I Remember".
