The moment I jumped into the Soul-Eating Abyss with that child in my arms, I heard him let out a howl toward the sky.
Bound by twelve divine chains, he was like a stray dog, letting out a heartbroken wail.
I felt as though I had heard that sound before, sometime after I died.
At last, amid the tearing agony, I remembered.
I had once been the master of all things,
and he was the only god who stood as my equal.

2. It's something of an ensemble cast, with multiple protagonists.
Theme: Floating frost stains the passing years; a bow of the head transforms the heavens.
