Work Text:
An ancient call,
older than time itself.
An unknown people,
heed its signal.
Find reason
in the unknown.
Leave their home,
create one anew.
A fate worse than death;
Dream of a home
destroyed beyond repair.
Create your dream,
return what is lost.
Death is imminent,
but a reality in the mind,
cares naught for the reality
of body.
An ancient call,
older than time itself.
A people lost
to time immemorial,
sought the call,
thought it a cry,
the tears of an Eye.
A fate worse than death;
An intruder to the system,
a new mystery to explore.
Mysterious stones inside,
their explosion destructive.
Only a moment passed,
but none were left.
My first flight,
launching into the
unknown.
Learning of an ancient call,
older than time itself,
An unknown people,
who heed its call,
A people lost
to time immemorial.
A fate worse than death;
The end is nigh,
none know but I.
The eyes of old
looked to my soul,
and built me anew.
