The sun, the joy and strength of life, they are gone. The all consuming shadow covers them. A dark veil is over my world, and it consumes even the memories of things come before. None escape it, none defeat it. A merciless power, it moves slowly but steadily forward. The fall of kings, the decay of empires, the ending of life and love. All things die before its inexorable onslaught. I stand helpless before this mighty behemoth.
For no man can defeat Time.
