Come, my kinsman, for tonight may be our last night together. Tonight, on this small world, let it be known throughout the land that our adversaries proved too great an obstacle, the crown too heavy to bear. This, my comrades, is the end of our age, and the dawn of a strange new world on a strange horizon. Our champions and heroes have fallen into eternal slumber. Our faith rest on a rescue that will never come.

But that day has not yet come, dear friends. Let the guardian raise his shield, and let the warrior raise his sword. I do not know what awaits us tomorrow, or if we shall ever see the sun again, but if tomorrow is our final day, then we shall die together as a nation. Give them the destruction they crave. Let them know they shall never snuff out the light.
