Riven - Words Of Farewell

A faint clap of thunder in the distance

The Net Sphere long separated from reality

A droning sound humming in the levels below

All authority cut of from the hub

A calamity wrecking havoc in its wake

A gravitational discharge echoed through the hallways

Breaching a path to escape this endless maze

What is life to us lost in these endless mega structures

We’re pilgrims on our way to the edge of the unknown

Towards the rumored end of all

Builders randomly expanding the city

Beyond extinction of mankind

Millennia of uncontrolled growth

Resulting in a Dyson Sphere at grandest scale

Cancel the limiter to reach the surface

To see the void beyond with our own eyes

A testament to the human spirit

For death may not be our only freedom

No way to restore the lost world order

So we flee from this hostile place

Leaving a realm welled up with black tears

Reaching out far into space

An act of heroism, a final act of grandeur

All the odem drained, all the hours used up
