"T-Minus 15.193792102158E+9 years until the universe closes!"- Durandal, Neither High Nor Low, Terminal 1
For everything Marathon, come here and you can find it!
If you don't know what Marathon is, it is a game made by Bungie in the early 90's. It has one of the most complex and amazing storyline in a computer game to date.
TERMINAL OF THE DAY:
<32.55.82.967>
"Count Roland smites upon the marble stone;
I cannot tell you how he hewed it and smote;
Yet the blade breaks not nor splinters, though it groans;
Upward to heaven it rebounds from the blow.
When the count sees it never will be broke,
Then to himself right softly he makes moan;
'Ah, Durandal, fair, hallowed, and devote,
What store of relics lies in thy hilt of gold!'"
-From The Song of Roland
(Translated by Dorothy Sayers, Viking Penguin, NY, NY, 1957)
I've twice been conquered-
Three times more,
Never again shall humanity purge me,
And never the Pfhor.
Durandal
