Ever since I was little, I've always thought about what Famiglia Bellone should be.

When I saw 'il Signore dei Lupi,' I didn't want to accept that it was a higher existence than me or my famiglia.

Could it be that everything I've known, everything I've done, it's all been nothing more than the games of higher beings?

Is that what you had in mind when you gave me this sword as a favor from the don?

Even if you were sitting right here in front of me right now, I don't think you'd answer that question.

You might see me as a disobedient son, or an unqualified successor.

But I've never tried to deny who I am.

If you were wrong, then I will prove it to you. If I was wrong, I'll rethink everything I have to do.

But what was never an option, is hiding at home while other people fight for their lives.
