Have you ever seen a mass of ruins, left in the darkness, as relics of the aftermath of a carnage? The wrecked remnants of a castle, standing tall in darkness? Don't they hold a fascination in themselves? Aren't they as repulsive as they are beautiful, in their destruction? Don't they scream in their silences, clamouring the story of their ravages? Don't they chant the incantation of a revenge that seeks to trail itself, back to those that caused its sombre solace to be ravished thus? They have, and they always will, till their destructors meet the same fate as theirs, for circumstances never keep their balances unequal.
