The image shimmers and wanes, unfocussed, like moonlight reflecting off the surface of waves.

Two figures stand, wrought in silver and bronze.
Earth: John Cavil. Y: You were once slave to all, but now walk as master. Earth: Yet you are a slave to your own desire. Y:Forever has meditated on the essence of your being. Earth: The thread of fate has not yet woven together your war and the Eternal Experiment. Y: The omnipresent Of The Stars will be perceived not to act.
