Right and wrong changes. 
 
 My domestic life has always been my humble escape - a small abode with my younger brother, in a nice little meadow, away from the hustle and bustle of the kingdom. Though my reason for enjoying that escape was different twenty years ago. 
 
 Back then, whenever I stepped into the streets, I was lauded as a hero. As a friend. Toadstool's knight in felt armor. 
 
 But right and wrong changes. 
 
 As the years have gone on, the kingdom has became more liberal. Goomba and Koopa activists groups appeared, and reexamined my deeds in the light of a... `` new'' interpretation. Where as I was once the champion over a vicious monster and his minions, I am now the great persecutor of a peaceful and loving race. 
 
 I still say, to this day, that I did what I had to do. I did n't just up and kill *all of them. * But that image of me kicking a shelled Koopa into another, into the lava, has forever been burned into the quivering hearts of modern Mushites. 
 
 Perhaps the fact that I've never been put up for my crimes is, ironically, what's made the hatred toward me all the greater, and all the more unforgettable. All the more unforgivable. 
 
 That Koopa King has been made into something of a sympathetic anti-hero, whereas I ca n't even get a decent job anymore. Money for my past favors has n't drained away yet, but thankfully I do n't squander it. My brother, on the other hand.... 
 
 It gets more lonely here every day. I think I might go back to Rogueport soon, so I can be forgotten among the degenerates of these generations. If Goombella wo n't spit in my face the moment I step onto the dock. 
 
 Right and wrong changes.
