Fate of man.

You were there at the beginning. 

You saw the seed expand. 

You saw the rivers of blood, 

the rise of man. 

. 

You carried Nero's song 

from the Tower of Maecenas, 

The Sack of Ilium, 

feeding the flames of Rome. 

. 

You gave shape to the wing 

that allowed Daedalus to soar 

and watched mankind create 

a new kind of war. 

. 

Good and evil hand in hand 

always contending for the heart of man. 

Eons upon eons you've wandered the land 

giving no answer to the fate of man.
