About the author

Matthew Carauddo

Hello, Amal... my friend. I honor and thank you for listening. I have important messages, but little Time. I hope that whatever it is you seek, you find. But I also hope that you work toward helping IT to more easily seek and to find YOU.

I hope that you experience True Love. Even if somehow, someday, some way, upon some chaotic tomorrow--you lose it all. Whether by Death of any type (physical, mental, spiritual or otherwise). For, if you do lose them, and yet deep inside your Eyayeli, you still feel that amazing connection... then, that is a monumentally stronger Link than all others combined. A spiritual, celestial seal. ‘True Love Lost’ is a cruel, but powerful instructor. Even if you lose it--or find it--in Oneself.

I also implore you to you cherish every moment of Time. It is a gift which you have been merely borrowing here, friend. As the tagline of the work states: “Time is the only resource for which no creature may bargain”.

It’s not merely a majestic-sounding line to scribe onto a book’s mysterious cover... it’s the truth. It’s all we have, until all of it is gone. And you never know WHEN all of it will truly BE gone. Some do not live to their expected, projected old ages, free to pass into the unknown peacefully. You can be struck down at ANY age. I’ve been a pallbearer for the young, and buried friends old and young, and suffered the nightmares when one such friend washed ashore. Perhaps you’ll listen between these words.

 Titans fall.

 If Death called upon the dragons of this tale--which it undoubtedly has, so shall the Gate on one tomorrow... CALL UPON YOU.

I pray to Althe’aya that you remember my words well. Cherish your Time, nourish each beat of your Cyur, cradle the hours, write every Sunsday, watch the Vas Oos, and study your Universe. Act youthful despite your Epochs, offer others encouragement of Eyayeli each Tide, and never doubt that you should ALWAYS Spohs to someone how much they mean to you--as often as is possible. Tell them. Before it is too late.

However, do not also wait until they run out of Time. Because, for some... tomorrow never comes.
