I believe tonight the world is in the most peaceful state possible. The heavy rain that persisted throughout the day held everything living at bay from venturing out into the world. The rain has now ended and a fog thicker than any other rests on the earth, acting as a shield to all but the sounds of one's own footsteps and the halos of street-lamps. No wind stirs the leaves so recently fallen. No being, whether human, insect, leaf, or even the Earth itself, dares to disturb the transcendent silence which outweighs all of existence.
