For there is no end
;-;
As my friend mentioned, this news is not new at all, but it doesn't matter to me.
I just found out James Oliver Rigney jr, better known as Robert Jordan, author of the famous and long running Wheel of Time died September 16th, 2007. Robert Jordan is the reason I started writing in the first place, and one of the first writers to truly show me how fantastic fantasy can be.
When I was younger, I used to wish that his most famous series, the Wheel of Time, would never end. It seems, as the book had always predicted in every prologue, The wheel always turns. It's sad that we'll never get to see the great battle we've waited the better part of a decade for, but far sadder that a legend of our time has passed on to just that.
The wheel of time turns, age gives birth to legends, with time these legends become myth and with time these myths are lost from the annals of time till the age which gave birth to them comes again
Though you may be gone, your legacy will always live on, and the wheel will always turn in our hearts and minds.
It's not much, but I had to say it; there is no writer living or dead that I hold in higher esteem than Robert Jordan. It's hard to believe he's really gone.
May the last embrace of the Mother welcome you home, and the Creator shelter you in his hand.
