Parasitical
Friedrich stands alone amid a wheat field, clutching a book that speaks of the Eternal Return and the Ouroborosâa serpent symbolizing endless cyclesâand he interprets it as a living creature watching over humanityâs parasites who reap othersâ labor without contributing. He realizes that the wheel of time is not merely a grinding stone but a serpentâs mouth awaiting those âwhiteâblooded leechesâ to devour, and that true creators will rise while the parasitic harvesters fall. Thus he keeps vigil at nightfall, believing the ancient watching eye will eventually swallow the greedy, while the diligent builderâhimselfâwill be reborn like a phoenix.
