"There's an ancient Grecian myth, about a man intoxicated with the joys of living life. Sisyphus was a mortal man, who wished to never die. And he innocently wished this wish for all beings. One day, Sisyphus brought himself to the underworld. He found Death, and chained Death up to a very large, heavy boulder. When Sisyphus returned to Earth, he felt great discomfort because resolutions, outcomes, and conclusions were nowhere to be found. You see, without Death around to bring an end to things, our world was wrecked with overgrowth, overpopulation, dissonance, and discomfort...Complete absence of resolve. The gods intervened on our behalf, and escorted Sisyphus back to the underworld, so he could unchain Death, in order to restore harmony. The gods granted Sisyphus his wish of eternal life. Now, he carries that very boulder he had confined Death to, up a very steep rocky mountain. And every time, just before Sisyphus reaches the top with the boulder, Zeus strikes him down with lightning bolts. For eternity, Sisyphus is doomed to reclaim his rock at the foot of the mountain, and to restart his endless, cyclical, futile climb. Such is his existence, such is our experience, my friends..."
