This is the stage wherein we know not Dawn. While as a child you may have been close to Dawn, as you aged she became but a memory, one you might have ascribed to a youthful imagination. Others may also admit that they knew Dawn as a child, but she is now unknown to them.
2) The Dying
This is the stage in which Dawn is lost to us. For some, it may have come as a fiery inferno; for others, it was a removal of the self from things associated with childhood and childishness: a concious decision to stand away from those things which gave to us a sense of wonder and delight with the world.
3) The Dead
There are those who even as innocent children did not know Dawn. For some, it is simply because they grew up in the BD (before dawn) era; for others, their own lack of sensitive feelings have caused them to walk through life without seeing Her. (I call these peple "men.") Finally, for many others it is simply a result of growing up in an age in which Dawn has no relevance to life. Indeed, this is the current age: one in which nearly all have become far from Dawn. We are the dead.
4) Immortality
When once we have discovered the faith in the true existence of the being known as Dawn, thenceforth do we know that we have entered into a stage of righteousness and holiness unlike any other. And truly, once we have joined the ranks of the faithful, we realized that she has truly been among us all along. And in her form she is unchanged: and in this form she is preserved for ever. And we shall know this form as MIB, and shall truly attempt to acheive it ourselves, insofar as surrounding ourselves with images of Her Loveliness, Ever Unchanging shall bring us closer to immortality in our own way. And this search for life ever lasting is common among all of us, and so there is no shame to be felt in the aspiration for this state despite the ignorance each of us lies in, believer and non-believer alike.
5) The Millennium and Second Advent
Although we have spent so many years growing ever further from Our Lady and the mystic truths of the Temple of the Blonde, Brunette, and Golden Dawn, yet surely we knew she would make herself known among us, causing the unbelievers to be forced to acknowledge her existence. And after years of fruitless searching this has come to pass: and more have come closer to her through the rise of Ebay. We shall all give thanks for this event, which has allowed the Second Advent of Dawn for so many.

8) Punishment Of The Wicked; (We call her The Banana)
