Amidst the eternal waves of time, from a ripple of change shall the storm rise. Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon. Behold the Razgriz, its wings a black sheath

The demon soars through dark skies. Fear and death trail its shadow, until men united wield a hallowed saber. In the final reckoning the beast is slain.

As the Demon sleeps man turns on man. His own blood and madness spread throughout the Earth. From the depths of despair awaken the Razgriz, it's raven wings ablaze with majestic light.

Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped... in a never-ending spiral of life and death. Is it a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if we'll have the chance to kill him.

I recognize Halo 4, but what's the first one ? reminds me of the haitian man in Limits of Control : The universe has no border. No end either. Reality is arbitrary (from memory)

[–] abigscaryhobo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Assassin's Creed. It's their maxim/motto. It leads into a whole discussion from Ezio about what it means, where he basically says by taking part in the world, we are responsible for driving change to make it better, nothing is set in stone; and we may not always know how are actions may end, but ultimately we need to do the best we can, and own the consequences, good or bad.

The actual quote:

"To say that nothing is true, is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted, is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic."

The first one is the Assassin's Creed from Assassin's Creed.

My favourite quote from that series is

The standard Ottoman hook blade has two parts, you see… the hook and the blade

Spoilers for the Valhalla DLC of God of War: Ragnarok:

What can I say to you? I remember how it felt to take that throne. All that it meant and all that it did not. A God of war. God of pain, of suffering, of destruction. The Norns said I chase redemption that I know I can never deserve. What does that make me? God of fools. A God of... Hope. "When all else is lost". You lost everything. And everyone. you became... There is no forgiving you. You chose... I chose. What now? Should I, the same man, should I sit? take? proclaim? lead? place myself in service? In service. Should I lose everything and everyone, there's to be enough left inside so that I do not become you? I do not know. But I have... hope. You are cruel and arrogant and selfish. But you are more than that. You have always been more than what others saw. You are more than that.
