Immortalys

Prologue

Can one world be so layered

That a whole city can hide away?

In the mountains of the north

Where the swirling auroras play

Blue and green on the dark snow,

A city perches in the sky

Its great pinnacles and windows aglow.

Their technology ever expands

Upward and outward into space;

Intelligence shines from all their eyes

And order from every face.

But beneath their superior genetics

A monstrous virus burns:

The reason no one from our world returns.

Roads paved with crystal

And glass houses filled with gold

House people who travel strange dimensions

And see the vast universe unfold.

Where progress is forever,

Where time flows without suture:

Hail Immortalys, the city of the future.
