I've been marooned here for the past 4000 years. I've heard the wars and the endless building above. The shadow canals of the stars are now broken. I can only fly about at night here. The sun is my destructor. Light of decay and chaos. They're no shadow canals here to protect me. I must heed the night and listen for the bird's morning calls. As the birds sing. I must get to safety. Bathe myself in shadow. Away from the sun. I have studied far and wide. The knowledge here depicts me as an angel. I will use this knowledge to feed. And they will let me without consequence.
