RequiemYou did not die gracefully.Requiem by ~toska9
You did not go quietly into the night,
But kicked and screamed with all your might.
You fought against your setting sun,
Refusing to believe your life was done.
In your friends you were mistaken,
By your God you were forsaken.
No salvation, resurrection, redemption;
No everlasting comforting connection.
Your body ate itself from inside out

He looked far and wide

It is with deep sadness and regret that we announce the passing of the Elegant Insult.
The Elegant Insult has been a prominent, although sometimes undervalued, figure in society for quite some time, wielding immense political and social influence at the height of its power. In its time, it has held the attention of kings and determined the outcome of wars.
Although having no verifiable date of birth, the first recorded appearances of the Elegant Insult date back to ancient Greek times, visible in the works of the poet Homer in the 9th century BC and the fabul

This is a story of how what is true became untrue; real became unreal; and dark became light. This is my story. Hear it if you will.
We live how we have always lived, in the way of those who came before us, in the same way since memory began.
Our people are not many but we are still more than a few. Perhaps several hundred in our clan alone and there are others. We keep mostly to ourselves. This is the way of our people, the way of all those before us. It keeps us safe.
We live in the Deep, where we hunt and gather for our needs. Sometimes we trade with other clans. But mostly, we remain alone.
My people have always liv
