From the distance between us to the vast expanse of time, decisions shape the universe. Decisions that are often foolhardy, naïve, and selfish. Temptation tugs at souls and ambition turns men into heartless creatures. Sometimes even the most noble intentions can lead to dark and grim endings. Even when a man has the gift of all the time in the world he will lose all that he holds dear. Even when people have the benefit of learning from history the past will repeat itself. In this collection of short stories such decisions are made, and the folly of humanity is exposed. The only constant is destruction. Life must always result in death.
