Sky's Miracle

This is a moment of destruction inscribed on a stone tablet. This is the miracle of Aquila, the Eye of Twilight.
In ancient times, a wise king once built a vessel to traverse the sky.
Arrogant politicians promised the people that they would challenge the authority of the Titans.
Ridiculous jesters eulogized the tyrant, declaring that the eternal sovereign would reign over the sky.
They vowed to surpass Okhema, ascend through layers of clouds,
Tread the city of the sky priests underfoot, and even break the sky to rise above the blazing sun.
People sang of the tyrant's greatness, as they hauled wood, wove hides,
And forged roaring machinery to draw and support the flying steel behemoth.
How magnificent! Bearing the pride and arrogance of an entire nation, it sailed in the direction of the realm of the gods.
How laughable! Flesh and steel were obliterated in the thunder, in the blink of an eye.
