In a time when faith failed
as much as logic, he was
courage borne on a winter’s
tempest—a legend when nobody
yet lived who understood their
makings.

Unabashed ebony—a
ten-year lunar eclipse
blinding by day and
fearsome by night: a Lord
of the Dead, frolicking
against convention
and mortality, on the knife’s
edge between two worlds.

And when the time comes,
he will weary and leave me,
passing through to final rest
and heritage…

I will bury him in the same
place we came to life together.

"a legend when nobody
yet lived who understood their
makings. "

What does that mean?
