Something inevitable. We will all die one day and there will be no one to remember us. In a book, a man was afraid of oblivion, that no one would remember him when he dies. It is the state of being forgotten.
Augustus Waters is afraid of oblivion.
"There will come a time when all of us are dead. All of us. There will come a time when there are no human beings remaining to remember that anyone ever existed or that our species ever did anything. There will be no one left to remember Aristotle or Cleopatra, let alone you. Everything that we did and built and wrote and thought and discovered will be forgotten and all of this will have been for naught. Maybe that time is coming soon a nd maybe it is millions of years away, but even if we survive the collapse of our sun, we will not survive forever. There was time before organisms experienced consciousness, and there will be time after. And if the inevitability of human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it. God knows that's what everyone else does."
"I fear oblivion. I fear it like the proverbial blind man whos afraid of the dark." -Augustus Waters
The reason I don't have friends.
I thought the Khajiits in Oblivion WERE my friends...
-The fourth installation of the Elder Scroll's series, possibly one of the most addicting games ever known to man besides masturbating. Side effects cause loss of friends (real ones not virtual), whitening of the skin until the point of translucency, being disowned by your parents, losing your job, and in all cases, inevitable death.
I picked up a copy of oblivion today, I also made my will, published my obituary, made last calls to my friends and family, pre-ordered 1500 boxes of hot-pockets and NOS, installed the game on my computer and lived in a constant state of braingasm until my death in the plains of Bruma three thousand years in the past.
The end of fear, as told said by The Scarecrow (Jonathan Crane) in Batman: Arkham Asylum after Batman is defeated by him.
"And at the end of fear...oblivion." - Scarecrow
The fourth game in "The Elder Scrolls" video game series. "The Elder Scrolls: Arena", "The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall", and "The Elderscrolls III: Morrowind" are the other games in this series. Currently "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion" has not been released yet.
"I just finished arena. You wanna come over and make a character?" "Daggerfal rocks! You want to make a character? You can be a werewolf and stuff..." "Morrowind is like crack! You want to smo- I mean make a character?" "I would like to purchase a copy of Oblivion for the Nintendo 64" Said bob, the customer. "What are you smoking? It's only coming out on the PC and Xbox 360 *Note they might put it on PS3 latter on* And, it's not out yet!" Shouted the 38 year old pedophile clerk.
