"When a nation is powerful it tells the world confident stories about the future. The stories can be enchanting or frightening, but they make sense of the world. But when that power begins to ebb, the stories fall apart. And all that is left are fragments which haunt you like half-forgotten dreams."
(OOC NOTE: The middle segment is the promo, and there are two, one from each character. You can read it from start to finish to read KEZ's piece, or read only the blue words to read Lilith's)
