Eins
The Aeons blew out our sun. Humans, they said, defile this sacred universe. So we dug in deep and let the cold, starless nights bring forth our demise.
Zwei
The secession war ended, and the Jackal got incarcerated for treason. Eons later, he awoke from a cryogenic cell and found a dying universe on its last whimper.
Drei
The Chanteuse sang above the universe, so man could see Lord's heaven. Furious, mother cast her into Time's backwater, where the past, present, and future are entangled forever.
Vier
The intercontinental ballistic missiles had failed. The asteroid is still coming towards us. Fire from the blast will engulf everything, so say goodbye to your loved ones now.
Fünf

Seches

Sieben

Mayday, mayday! This is USS High Vision, a research vessel orbiting Mars. We have accidentally opened a portal to Hell... please send help! (Transmission ends with a scream)
Zehn
We crossed the event horizon and saw something that changed us. Now we are waiting in line to throw ourselves out of the airlock, and I am grateful.
