  • O Reginald, you were a great man. May you be remembered forever in our hearts. For the summer is over And winter is coming and all that previously mattered is dead gone buried cold And when the sun expanded its shell towards earth, the people stood united. The sang, but fell silent as it rushed towards them, filling them with terror. THERE WAS A GHASTLY SILENCE THERE WAS A GHASTLY NOISE THERE WAS A GHASTLY SILENCE
