Und noch ein kleiner (aber feiner!!!!) SPOILER:
And the face around those teeth was changing: darkening, contracting, turning into something that was no longer human. It was the face of a psychotic clown.
Und gleich noch ein Spoiler, es handelt sich dabei um eine Grabrede, von wem und vor allen Dingen für wen wird darin nicht verraten, stimmt mich allerdings jetzt schon traurig, auch wenn es in keinem Kontext steht, lesen auf eigene Gefahr:
"Time flies, knells call, life passes, so hear my prayer.
"Birth is nothing but death begun, so hear my prayer.
"Death is speechless, so hear my speech.

"This is -------, who served his ka and his tet. Say true.
"May the forgiving glance of S'mana heal his heart. Say please.
"May the arms of Gan raise him from the darkness of the earth. Say please.
"Surround him, Gan, with light.
"Fill him, Chloe, with strength.
"If he is thirsty, give him water in the clearing.
"If he is hungry, give him food in the clearing.
"May his life on this earth and the pain of his passing become as a dream to his waking soul, and let his eyes fall upon every lovely sight; let him find the friends that were lost to him, and let everyone whose names he calls call his in return.
"This is ----, who lived well, loved his own, and died as ka would have it.
"Each man owes a death. This is his. Give him peace.
:-P
