"Life is madness, and madness is life. It is all an illusion, Father."
"I know. But I cannot let the madness of those above us, the ones who preside over our fate, the Higher Beings... To turn our world into madness."
Gautama opened his eyes after meditating for a while, in his seat within the Spider's Thread club. He was meditating and also reminiscing. Reminiscing memories of a life before he was reborn.
"Lost in a maze, we seek a finish line...." Uriel told him. "But there is no finish line. Written in lines of love and strife, of tragedy and romance…. The story goes on, as the Higher Beings deemed it to. If they deemed it to, it could go on forever."
