I have a recording of <i>le temps des cerises</i> by Charles Trenet, which I picked up after hearing his music on a movie soundtrack. Anyway, this is a song one could imagine playing in the void, echoing the end of everything. A little melancholy, a little sweet. Pairs will with fractals.

The narrative style reminds me of the novel-game Caves of Qud. Very well done.
