Today we say goodbye to one of the most influential figures this empire has ever seen. The world will long remember the Emperor as the heir to a weighty legacy; a champion for those who had none; the soul of the community; and the fierce leader of the Empire - a man whose name graces nearly one thousand laws, and who penned more than three hundred himself.
Not only did the Empire make it because of the Emperor's love - he made it because of theirs; and especially because of the love and the life he found in the people. They gave him strength and purpose; joy and friendship; and stood by him always, especially in those last, hardest days.
Even in abdication, he was remembered as a hero. After facing many trials throughout his reign, he resigned gracefully, passing the crown over to the other former Emperor, Badstar. As they were obliterated by nuclear hellfire by the Russians, they stood tall, with their pride and their honor.
Even with the destruction of the empire, and the swift annihilation of Russia afterwards, we cannot know for certain how long we have here. We cannot foresee the trials or misfortunes that will test us along the way. We cannot know God's plan for us.
What we can do is to live out our lives as best we can with purpose, and love, and joy. We can use each day to show those who are closest to us how much we care about them, and treat others with the kindness and respect that we wish for ourselves. We can learn from our mistakes and grow from our failures. And we can strive at all costs to make a better world, so that someday, if we are blessed with the chance to look back on our time here, we can know that we spent it well; that we made a difference; that our fleeting presence had a lasting impact on the lives of other human beings.
At last he is with them once more, leaving those of us who grieve his passing with the memories he gave, the good he did, the dream he kept alive, and a single, enduring image - the image of a man on a boat; white mane tousled; smiling broadly as he sails into the wind, ready for what storms may come, carrying on toward some new and wondrous place just beyond the horizon. May God Bless Emperor Lex, and may he rest in eternal peace.
