There have been a lot of strange incidents over the past months, where people abruptly lost control of themselves and acted on repressed desires, without regard for consequences. I'd like to provide an explanation for them.
When I arrived here, it was at the behest of a powerful and dangerous mage by the name of Masayoshi Shido. He wanted me to sabotage the school, and undermine the faith of both the students and the larger magical community in Daybreak's ability to manage and protect Candles. He wanted to weaken the school's image, in order to take over as the one in charge of overseeing the development of Flames.
He ordered this in complete awareness that such an upset would only hurt humanity's chances of overcoming Nightfall. His only priority was that he, and the people he deemed significant, survived and were able to continue leading their privileged lives. He believed himself to be a destined savior, but thought only a select few were worth saving, even if it meant turning his back on the masses.
I'm coming forward with this now because his conspiracy is finally undone. I told Daybreak's faculty of his schemes in October, and we were finally able to mount a covert counterattack at the end of last month. He wasn't alone in these plans, but his accomplices should be in too much disarray for a while to react effectively. I think I owe this explanation to everyone who's been affected by my actions, so I decided to say something now, while I have the breathing room.
This isn't a plea for forgiveness or mercy, I know everyone this matters to has every right to hate me. But I do hope you sleep a little better, knowing what happened and that there's no further chance of it happening again.

[He saw the conversation in the post itself, honestly. Sorry, but he has thoughts about all of this.]
Though I had no idea it had supernatural graspings, I'm not surprised that the organization set up by that man could be so easily toppled by such a simple thing. They were morons, after all - ones who couldn't even see the gaps and shaking in their own foundations.
[Shoddy criminal mastermind work, to be sure.]
If they'd bothered taking my advice, then I assume it would have worked out much differently. ...Ah, well - Their loss, and they were pitiful enough to apparently include children in their dealings. I'm glad to see I was correct in assuming that it would collapse within the decade.
no subject
I just didn't expect the huge fucking criminal conspiracy behind a politician with a bad reputation.
But it does say something that a teenager was able to gather as much evidence against them as I did.
Not to mention that he was enough of an idiot to send me here, and assume I'd stay cowed by him while somewhere he didn't have half the administration and staff in his pocket.
