In this episode of Wolves & Dragons, Fenrir the Black Wolf has a strange, hilarious, and unsettling realization: even at nearly 30, he hasn’t reached one billion seconds of being alive. That single fact cracks reality open. Because if counting one number per second would take more than three decades—with no sleep, no breaks, no missed beats—then what does “a billion” actually mean… and what does it do to your sense of time, identity, and mortality?

Fenrir turns this “fun fact” into a full-on night-walk through scale and meaning. He explores how the human mind compresses experience into eras and moods, why memory edits our lives into chapters, and how our bodies keep time through heartbeats, cycles, and constant microscopic repair. From there, the lens widens: archaeology, the rise-and-collapse rhythm of civilizations, and the humbling truth that Earth’s history spans billions of years—making modern human life feel like a spark that still somehow burns with significance.

Then the episode goes cosmic: quantum weirdness, probabilities collapsing into outcomes, the arrow of time, and the one-way drift of entropy that makes every second permanently spent. The result isn’t panic—it’s perspective. A reminder that your problems are real, but they aren’t the whole sky; that your life is temporary, and that’s precisely why it matters.

The episode builds toward a quiet ritual: when the billion-second mark arrives, pause. Look up. Breathe. And let a simple truth land—your life is made of seconds, and you still have the next one.
