Ozymandias (My favorite poem) by Percy Bysshe Shelley

"And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!'"
~Percy Bysshe Shelley

Navitas Vinculum Lupus

Navitas Vinculum Lupus are one of the races in the universe.  They are large animals that evolved from wolves.  Navitas Vinculum Lupus means energy bond wolf.  As the name implies, Navis (as their nicknamed in the book,) have the ability to create a bond with another being. 
Bonding means that their energies connect to one another making them closer to one that two beings.  When a Navi bonds, both parties have a hightened sensitivity to the others needs, emotions, and physical feelings; the Navi also connects to the other's life line.  When the Navis bond mate dies, so does the Navi. An unbonded Navi usually lives about 20 years.  They have a higher intelligence than the wolves of Earth now making it possible for them to truely connect with humans (which is their main bond.) The human however does not die if the Navi does, they just feel like part of them has died.  This is because it is the Navi who forms the bond and is completely dependent on it once it is formed. 
In the story, Shard is Izzy's Navi.  They play together, fight together, eat together, sleep together, are always together.  When apart they feel wrong, as if part of them is missing; duh.
