I am the prince of a thousand lands, and of none! I have been a King among peasants, and a peasant among kings! I have seen the end of the universe, and I have seen the beginning of another. Once I was the richest man in all worlds. Once I lived in none. I have danced with gods and been sung to sleep by fallen angels. And once, just for a little while, I could almost have claimed to be more than I was, and been telling the truth.
