"Yes, people forget. But forgetting is dangerous. Forgetting is how the monsters come back"

Beautiful. This was a beautiful piece of art. Jam is such a wonderful lens through which to view this world and hunt monsters. This book broke my heart in many ways, but also inspired me in others. Can't say much more than that.
