I feel overwhelmed. We've just explored the ruins of the ancient, original Olympic games. They were larger than I can imagine, and built in a time so long ago that it's beyond my comprehension. I want to know when the first columns on the Temple of Zeus collapsed. Had it been abandoned already, or were there still those who worshipped him nearby to witness it? Were they shocked to see something so powerful and all mighty descend into ruin? Were they sad? Were they scared? Were they at all? Had everybody already given up on Zeus and the rest? How could they have left such a magnificant place behind them? What happened?
