Cecil Rogers: Me and that tuba are cursed for eternity. As long as that tuba is intact, I will live forever to ponder the lives I took.
Middleman: So that's why you want it back, to end your misery. I bet you hear the screams of the drowning dead every night. Haunting your every moment.

Cecil Rogers: Actually it's been a pretty good time for me. It was rough at first, but then about ten years later, 1922-23, started going to the gym, taking A little yoga. I ride horses, cars.

So around 1955 I stashed the tuba in a bank vault for safekeeping and the rest has been history.

"I have seen marvels and endured so much. The humani lifespan is not long enough to experience a fraction of what this world alone has to offer. I have visited every corner of every continent on this planet and explored Shadowrealms both terrifying and awe-inspiring. And I have learned so much. Immortality is a gift beyond imagining. If you are offered it: take it. The benefits far outweigh the disadvantages...If you are brave and curious, there is no greater gift."

—Niten, The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel
