EPIGRAPH: Where stars that died gave out, gave up, gave in --
Where no one meant the promises they made.
Oh, and one more thing. I send my love
However long and far it takes -- through light,
Through time, through all the faithlessness of men.

EPIGRAPH: The Good Book says the meek shall inherit the earth and I expect that's probably the truth. I ain't no freethinker, but I'll tell you what. I'm a long way from bein' convinced that it's all that good a thing.
