"Fate goes ever as it must." - Beowulf
Interlude
It closed its eyes with a pained sigh.
At every pair of wings that fell from the sky.
Each felt deep within at every spark that died.
Burned into Memory the growing void inside.
The weight of all remembered deeds considered.
The future now unseen as hope withered.
One ending brought about in the past.
And another one now forecast.
It looked out over the waters and cried.
For fate cannot be denied.
Judgment being finally passed.
Destiny known at last.
Two winds to fly their own way.
A new world to begin this day.
It looked out over the world and spoke to all that could hear across all the lands and that looked to no other.
With a whisper on the wind.
And a summons before the end.
