-Joy was Candle Three, and it Burned Out-

Seasonal depression is enough to drive many of us into the deepest solitude we can find. Just ask KingMob.

This is all part of western civilization - the lament that followed the desperate revels for the favor of past gods and spirits; the balm against notions of oblivion.

Saturnalia has been supplanted, assimilated and co-opted many times over. But the death of the sun still affects us as it did them. We still don’t know enough about ourselves to control freezing-cold feelings.

Of course, what better way to counter western ignorance than with western wisdom? Experience the Allopathy!
