Empty hall, chairs in the corner.  
I do not have time to warn her  
as she makes her way inside,  
face exhausted, bleary eyed.

Memories flood in. The ghosts  
of our long forgotten hosts  
circle her, each yells its story.  
"Worship me! Accept my glory!"  
She can't answer them, of course.  
In a practiced voice, but hoarse,  
she now blocks their new found portal  
and sends every vain immortal  
to the void from which they came.  
Looks at me. I am to blame.

Did this all just really happen?  
Did they find a way to tap in  
through the medium of heirs?  
I'm not sure.

I just see chairs.
