In "The Sword of Summer," the protagonist, Magnus, acknowledges the curiosity readers might have about his painful demise. He anticipates that some may find the idea of dying in agony intriguing or even appealing. However, he firmly dismisses the notion that such a death is worth mimicking or inspiring risky behavior in others.

Magnus emphasizes the importance of understanding that his experience is not something to aspire to. He warns against dangerous actions, such as jumping off rooftops or running into traffic, insisting that these actions will not lead to the same outcome he faced. Instead, he wants readers to grasp the seriousness of his journey rather than seeking to replicate his misfortune.
