Everything you've said is something I understand more than riding birds and going to restaurants.

[War. Kings dying. People breaking treaties as soon as they can. Clarke is all too aware of those things.]

A hundred years before I hit the ground, the world was destroyed. Nuclear bombs were set off. Not because of war, not because anyone wanted it. It just happened. Most of humanity died. But what remained was still prone to strife. To being at war. There were kings, and leaders without such names. There were people who tried to maintain power by passing on beliefs to the people they used to survive.

Nothing I knew before this was good. It's just that it was all I knew.
