9 Lives - Stanski An unhappy household becomes a battleground in which no feelings are spared, where a war of words is waged, and a 'conflict culture' is established. A mother's shame becomes an unbearable burden in a dysfunctional relationship, where angry outbursts are replaced by violence, and someone else is always to blame. A father's indifference becomes a lifestyle choice in a world of his own creation, where he rules supreme, and chaos is the order of the day. A child caught in the crossfire becomes all his own influences, good and bad, in his own vivid imagination, where reality is suspended for the duration of his life, and a troubled family tradition is preserved. I was that child. I am now an adult, just like you. But... You don't know me. I don't know you. Truth is... I don't even know myself. What I do know is that by the time I'm dead, I will know you. By the time you're dead, we'll know each other, intimately. In the meantime, I'll introduce you to some erstwhile acquaintances. Friends of mine? Enemies of mine? Perhaps both... You won't know them. But, just as I did, you will recognise something of yourself in all of them. As you will in me. I know this for a fact. What I also know is that I am your fate. You are my destiny. My legacy... My redemption...? How many lives do I have to live? How many deaths do I have to die? Will you be like all the others and pass on the legacy? Or will you be the one who redeems me?
