However this portion of the school was sealed in glass as well.<\/p>\n<p>But I was wandering through this strange school, and I heard this&#8230;horrific warping of Bach\u2019s Sicut Locutus around me.

I had forgotten that I had originally called the piece \u201cSixteenth\u2019s End,\u201d to signify my fear of turning 17 at the time. I don\u2019t know.
