eρεβος (erebos)- of darkness i saw darkness pass over his eyes. that blank stare that was lifeless and cold. the darkness is a static constant in this ancient story of ours. to which we all submit. to which, even the ancients, especially the ancients, speak of. those who pass hardly ever return. those who return are never forgotten. what is it? what is it that looms over our fates and darkens our doorways? it is death, my love. erebus, my darling.
