Herein lies the tale of Antediluvia.
The world that is, was, and yet was not.
Of Antediluvia's end, tales were told.
Whether Antediluvia really existed, annals never told.

How I remember their leathery looks;
faces marred by cruel death's hook.
How I detest that eerie calm;
death's grip imparts like a spooky balm.
...
He is so wonderful;
His heart so beautiful.
He has never failed me;
and never would He, I know.
...
In hostile territory
Amidst the racket of exploding shrapnel
He lay dying.
