BTW, how long is a 'cycle', in this continuity? They have different lengths, depending on the source, and its difficult to work out how long 568,000,000,000,000,000 of them is, without knowing what to multiply by. Seems to be much shorter than a second, though, as that would make him over 18 billion years old.

“They planned their campaigns just as you might make a splendid piece of harness. It looks very well; and answers very well; until it gets broken; and then you are done for. Now I made my campaigns of ropes. If anything went wrong, I tied a knot; and went on.”
-- Arthur Wellesley, First Duke of Wellington
