Lo, all our pomp of yesterday

Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Rudyard Kipling, Recessional.
In ancient days, when mystical shit was BIG and IN YOUR FACE, somebody FUCKED UP and BROKE EVERYTHING and now THINGS SUCK.

In ancient times, men built wonders, laid claim to the stars and sought to better themselves for the good of all. But we are much wiser now.
Archmagos Ultima Cryol, Speculations On Pre-Imperial History, Warhammer 40000
