A memory is burned into this strange material, an echo of another lifetime...

"The chase is over, and I have lost.
The giants will endure, and I will end.
As I plummeted from the sky, I saw another ship falling alongside mine. Then another, and another.
I may have imagined it. The misfiring of a dying mind...
Those creatures were so beautiful. But it is all ended now.
They will haunt my thoughts no longer."
