Unus Annus. One Year.

That's how long you have to enjoy this content. Then it ends.

Forever.

Those words have been Markiplier and Ethan's mantra for the past 11.9 months. With the end so nigh, it seems fitting that I do an instructable commemorating the death of Unus and Annus.

This will not be deleted with the channel, however, as it stands as confirmation of their death, rather than their immortality.

Supplies

One piece of paper, preferably one with different colored sides

The Base

Fold the sides in to the center twice as shown.

The Start of the Stone Itself

Fold either 1/3 or 1/4 of the model and then use that to fold the entire model as shown. 1/4 fold is better for large stones.

From inside, fold the stone-piece so that it stands as shown. Crease it from side to side to help even out the folds.

Erecting the Stone

Squash the stone downwards, and then fold as shown to make it stand. Fold the sides inwards at the back as shown.

Creating the Cross

Fold in a zig-zag shape as seen in the images, then fold the bain "body" inwards around the cross, squashing the little triangle shapes that form.

Memento mori.

Unus Annus.
