The wind blew fast and hard on the last day, the last day this earth would see human life; a sad smile etched the face... leaving day… A day of both celebration and loss. The final ark, the last vestige of man, was set to a straight course for the far stars, ever past the horizon far from reach. Life had been found one hundred years ago, We descended from pods not long after, now..? we were finally going home… “home”...

The ark was ready, named after old myth, said to bring salvation to the life here. Now? It was used to leave it… stranded… gone… We were cowards, too afraid of the change; the change which the evolution brought forth; not a plague, nor pestilence, a new epoch.

“A new beginning for us all” they said

“A new life full of whimsy and wonder” they said

However grasping such powers they changed, lost to primal urges now awakened. We… We were also enticed, thirsty, lost… however… brought back, brought back from this rave; we sought to return to what we once had… No, we did not, they did not, lose themselves… rather… the time caused them to forget self. Elves you can call them, long eared aberates, once but creatures of myth with endless life. First there was famine, endless people feed; Then there was slaughter, starvation and greed; Then there was savagery, dark ages past, they told of a time when libraries burned. Is this the second coming of the dark?

The elves which returned from this time forgot, endless lives, limited memories pass, pass between the inner core to the mind. Seeking to not return to a time they… they burned what we wrote … long… long… long ago. Seeking to live forever they regressed. Now but a few tree huggers afraid of… what they had. Living to forever is but a dream, they sought to make the earth last eons later, their endless lives creating endless fear, fear that they’ll see the desolation thrive. The elves brought war onto humanity, they forgot their own roots rejecting past. Now acting grander than thou, better than… Untold brutality went to rebels.

And so we leave…

And so we leave…

And so we leave…

And so we fade...
