She is close to the end and she knows it, she always did, but now that it's closer than ever she is starting to realise that maybe she did not leave her mark on the world. Oblivion is nearing and as she slips in to darkness but not necessarily death, not yet anyway, things crumble around her giving the effect of an exploding grenade. She starts to realise that Augustus was right oblivion.
