Subject: The Artifact and the Ash
(Portal to Tomorrow, Part 2)
This is the coroner’s report from my Acid ResurrecXion
The theater of operations: Osaka, Japan.
Date: June 20, 2025
I promised you fire, a descent into Osaka’s electric beast, a baptism anointed with liquor, rumination, and possibly ruination. I was certain the chaos on the other side of this fire would yield clarity, convinced that this personal revolution would be televised and widely shared.
My earlier manic promises must now confront the cold, hard data, the artifact. This essay bridges the moment my ego dies and the analyst within me is resurrected from the ashes to dissect the footage. Yet, the transmission was abruptly cut for unknown reasons. All that remains is this black box recording.
