[stupid] a dumb plot hook

The villain butchered the hero's family

the hero arrived just in time to catch a glimpse of his face before he left

he's on a quest for vengeance, but

he's faceblind

"What did the killer look like?" "He had eyes, and a mouth, they were in the normal places? fuck"

in his rage he burned the killer's face into his memory but it didn't really take

he had eyes that looked like eyes

a mouth he could talk through

a nose with two nostils

nostrils

Welp.

Hunting down every bastard in a really dramatic black cloak and praying the villain hasn't changed his aesthetic in the intervening time.

he finally finds the killer and he's wearing a blue cloak

"HOW THE FUCK WAS I SUPPOSED TO FIGURE THIS OUT"
