symbolizes the destruction of humanity, but also the one who symbolizes
the rebirth of humanity. You are the beginning and the end, in a sense,
a descendant of yourself, simultaneously the father and the son. You
will be born again through your own descendants, and will once again
become the kinsman redeemer. It is your destiny, there is no other way.
You are the White Eagle."

"You only confuse me more, what is this White Eagle?"

"Do you remember when we first met, in the Chambers of History? On the
dome of the ceiling there was a sculpture mural, and in it was a White
Eagle, holding many lords and ladies in its talons while it soared far
above the lands, and those on the land were worshiping it. You are the
White Eagle. You hold all of humanity in your hands, for you are the
father of all men, they all descend from you, including you, yourself.
You were the White Eagle, for the altar had no power, the power was only
in you.

"Those who worshiped you were those who worship time, in either of its
forms, past or future. Those who worship the past recognize the
influence of history, and they understand that there are taboos and
traditions created through mutual experience. These traditions reign in
humanity by keeping men from actions that lead to pain and suffering.
But they do not understand that while it influences mankind, the past
does not control them, for it is gone, and it will never come again. In
their strict keeping of traditions, they focus on the physical act of
the tradition, while neglecting the spiritual principle behind the
tradition. If you keep only the physical form of the principle, you have
nothing.
