Shattered sunlight prevails-piercing the gaze of charred seraphim. Witnessing such a great descent to cross such a mortal chasm. Soaring, trailing soot and ember throughout the glowing skyline. Let me hit the ground. Let me burden the Earth. Bones to ashes. Ashes to dust. Cascades of cinders rain with such grace, golden embodiments of fate scoured across the dawn. Dusk will become night. Night will be bleak. Wounds, they heal. Invoked light, swallowing the meekest and engulfing them in the ambrosia of triumph. Judgement's banner dissolved and disarmed. Salvation, perpetual. A diadem for a chosen few, Signifying ascendency. It never lasts. Echoes of ghosts, lost, fade away. We fade away. Engraved in nothingness, humility sheds itself. Failure burns bright.
