Escape : hAbeL
Habel experiences her own inner turmoil. He is torn between the clash of good and evil within him. Habel decides to choose the good side in himself.
Thus, he thinks that a good personality cannot cope with the bad. Habel flees from evil and all that is bad.
Habel tries to escape but is caught by the villain's trap. Habel neutralizes evil at the first opportunity. Habel listens to the good voice inside and lends a helping hand to the bad guy, but that's the end of Habel.

"will you let it take you hostage?”
Freedom is our choice, slavery is our choice. The decision is yours.
