Bow down before your new god. He seek dominion over the entirety of your soul. There is no resistance to the power of his command. Worship him and he will take you into his protection. Refuse and he shall destroy you utterly.
The Elder Gods are gone, banished by your One God. Now even He fades into the annals of history and this world is left cold and alone in a Dickensian universe. The last vestiges of honor and humanity have fled to warmer climes. Now we alone are responsible for the perpetual tragedy our existences have become. There is nothing left to ease the pain, no grandfather figure in the sky that will wipe our tears. Our world was formed from the eternal flow of chaos, the illusion of law that must occur once in an infinate timestream, and it is steadily approaching that state once again. Science tells us that, philosophy tells us that; hell, even looking out one's damned window makes this fact readily apparent. Atrophy is at the very core of our society. Children starve, adults self-destruct into delightful alcoholism (or worse) and the elderly are shipped off to vermin-infested homes to while away their twilight years. Perhaps it actually was better in the "good ol' days" and we are only living in the inevitable decay of a species. Apathy is the hallmark of the times, nobody cares about the wonderful things that are fading. |
