“It never failed to amaze me, even after all these centuries, that the elements cared not for human pain. That the sky and the stars paid no heed to the obliterated corpses below. That the birds still sang each morning, no matter how many men had fallen the night before. Sometimes that sense of insignificance was a comfort. But here, languishing in a rotten maze carved into the ruined earth, I felt nothing but despair. How simple and beautiful life could have been. How far that humanity had strayed.”
