It is with a great mixture of sadness and pride that I now bid you all adieu.
Adieu: to god. In my time here with Biome, I have come to a new understanding of god as being the concept -- nay, force -- that we call Nature. Truly, it is now adieu, to Nature, that I go. I can only hope that some of you will find the strength to follow me there.
It is a little-known fact that I grew up not in the true wilds, swinging from the trees like some diminutive avidd opolis wannabe, but in the merely urban wilds of the greater Boston area. Boston: the crucible of the great Church of Euthanasia. These sardonic paladins had a saying which has always stuck with me:
Save the planet. Kill yourself.
Truly, in these nightmare days of overpopulation and over-consumption -- both, I fear, exponentially on the uptake -- it seems there is little that can be done to stem these ravenous tides. Little, that is, short of direct action. As a child in elementary school, I joined my classmates in song every year at our holiday assembly:
We have come to banish night
Banish it with candlelight
Each of us is one small light
But together we shine bright
It is time, my friends, for me to make myself over into one small light in the battle against the wanton destruction endemic to humanity. Please, don't make me spell it out for you any further. This is hard enough for me as it is.
My sole regret is that I never found the time to plant a tree. Should anyone feel that I deserve any sort of memorial, such a task would more than suffice.
Adieu, to Nature, always,
Starchy

I, on the other hand, am not shocked at all. Sorry, that's "on both hands."
I once did this in the student lounge in my high school. No one believed me.
Found in Proust, likely not originating there. Note that this means it was in fact translated from French to English even before all of this nonsense.
Oooh, yes, the pavillion would be perfect!
