A Brief History
by Kenneth P Regan Jr.
It was a sight to see, the final act. Artists raced, stealing hearts and minds like starving thieves; their works no longer fruits but diabolical tools. Priests and scientists alike fought over short-lived miracles, in desperate attempts at salvation. Some continued with more traditional labor--work they loved or knew best. Others were not so content. Those seeking more joined the battles. Men and women raped and pillaged. They danced as guns blazed, swords met shields and the land and sky turned red. And in that moment, as the world turned its final pirouette and the asteroid pierced the atmosphere, we fighters all discovered stalemate.
