Dit is wat je moet onthouden: het einde van het ene verhaal is alleen maar het begin van het volgende. Dit is immers al eerder gebeurd. Mensen gaan door. Oude ordes vergaan. Nieuwe samenlevingen worden geboren. Als we zeggen dat 'de wereld is vergaan', is dat meestal een leugen, want de planeet maakt het prima. Maar zo vergaat de wereld Zo vergaat de wereld. Zo vergaat de wereld. Voor de laatste keer.
