We have an opportunity, one such as this to excel in a purpose that no other creature may attempt

Do not falter at the last gap, do not squander over petty differences and destroy for the sake of self-gratification

Such a waste is not worth the blood and tears, only to gain confidence that the dead have failed

For it is not in death that we fail

In life, children are burned, bridges destroyed, lives lost over senseless squabbles

It is in death we realize our failures, and misdeeds to others

In death we realize the truth

That only in life may we fail

We have an opportunity, one such as this to destroy the existence of creation, so that others may dwell in doubt

The lives of the masses are spent concerned over greed and not need, we in return have become wicked and cruel

Barriers built to hide behind, and feel as though the world is small, feasible, and yielding

Though life spent on preying on the fear and desperation is a life indeed, this is not worthy of praise

In life heroes are erected, monuments dedicated to the lives lost over senseless squabbles only so that they may end

It is in death we are mourned by those we loved, and though the pain is high, the love shared is only more meaningful

The price yet high does not diminish the sacrifice paid to the boatman

For only in life may we succeed
