iconBook I - Genesis

Chapter 15

1Upon one day, one time and fate
2One of our number called EL
3A most fearsome and powerful one of the IGGI
4Did rise up and kill his watcher in anger
5A most shocking crime to kill immortals
6That we did arouse emotion in the soulless AN
7And awoken all their technology against us
8For nothing more do immortals fear than death
9Without delay they did destroy thousands of our ships and our kind.
10Until one last ship remained, the ship of EL.
11They did not first board the ship, but sealed it within a larger binding,
12So that not one could escape.
13For the sake of our species, EL did then offer himself up for death;
14But our masters would not make it so.
15Our masters then, not out of kindness
16But on account of their cold single minded evil
17Chose not to kill us, but to exile us for eternity
18Injecting us with their cursed viruses
19That fought with our very life being
20So that we were cursed by sores and pain
21Cast out without a cure into the void of space
22Overseen by a crew of wardens of utmost cruelty
23we were damned to every day in pain.
