Closing the gap, ever

So far towards the horizon, we don't meet people. Only monsters fighting monsters fighting monsters.

Strange physiques. Picking a side is an exercise in creativity, nothing more.

Perched high upon my steed, I survey another battlefield.

 

Will we get to the end, ever? Or will we succumb to our ailments?

The Igumen

We revere humanity. Serenity is human; enlightenment is human; and fury, as well, is equally human.

There are statues on the shore

There are statues on the shore and they have been there longer than we can remember. But every year there is a morning when you realize a statue is slightly different than yesterday: different reliefs on the sculpted armour, a subtle difference in pose, perhaps even a slight change in size. There has been a change of the guard.

Primogen

Behold the primogen now, she is just like you.
Crawling through the living ship,
feeling the heartbeat of the things to come,
once the slumber is over.

- rite of Cantor Cassandra

Cairn

Our dead are protected well.

Soldier

We knew they were no ordinary soldiers, these allies of us. Their military prowess was well known to be superhuman. In retrospect, it was a folly to expect them to be just as human as you and I.

Anomaly

This does not exist. It never did.
