I stood there for a moment. My face of shone not of beauty, but of hard cold stone. I knew what was coming. As I turned around, my vision faded around the edges. All I knew as of the pain that was my chest, my arms, my legs. The edges of my vision grew darker and darker as the pain sharpened everything I was started to disappear. As I fell to the ground, I saw everything in a flash for the last time, my rejoicing... my pain, my love, my sorrow.
