Massive power surges all over the place, lots and lots of busted windows, and no more people on the planet who can breathe underwater.

After centuries of living, watching their loved ones grow old and die, watching humanity discover new technology, only to find ways to use it as weapons against each other? I'd be tired. I'd be bored. Death would be new, different... a chance to stop all the fighting and just rest, without waking up to do it all over again.Enforcer Talen wrote:wait, they spend 4000 yrs slaughtering each other, and the last one gets to die?

Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Not to go off topic, but I recall reading somewhere in the Warhammer 40K rulebook: "Life is a prison, death is a release."LadyTevar wrote:

Of course, this refers to the hopelessness of life in the setting of WH40K - but it can just as well be applied to eternal life...
