“A poem discovered in Misram in 127 A.D. (After the Destruction)”

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSv7XDaiMH

In a land thought unknown, near the Elysian Grove,

there lived a half-mortal named Medeva, and

‘though her husband forbade it, she practiced strong magic —

kept a collection of spells on her walls

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7XtmhdZk4

wrapped up in scrolls, bound in thick leather tomes,

secrets that had been forbidden,

indexed according to author’s last name, the archivist

kept them locked and well-hidden

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhWXocdH3X

— words of a prince who led Valentian ships,

recollects the rites of a priestess,

who carried on-board a metaphorical sword,

prayers to the weather and east wind

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzDh42s2Wh

— tales of a people who lived in steel cities,

written down by authors unnamed,

revealed the secrets of gods they worshipped,

now dead, Medeva watched over their graves

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6iCQKwmHI

(lost mages’ magic, calculable madness,

Medeva prepared to conquer,

and though there were skeptics who doubted

their existence

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PiGEGYgKN

she knew they were real by her visions),

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpL1iXs3xvG

their poems by Kemetians,

the songs of their heavens,

the mouths of their angels in chariots,

her scrolls had been filled with a divine set of skills

passed down by a collection of ancients —

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliHpLOFObC

the man she wed known as Jason

the Dread, a member of the Society of Alchemists,

believed her magic was a fool's task, an errand,

passed down from dead preachers of treason,

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PKDYXkAxW

so they scoured the house, searched for hours and found

a door veiled by a sky-blue woolen rug

spun in a circle and woven in the center — a medallion

from a story the bards sung.

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeU2q6R6hf

(what if they’d known of that secret legend,

would they have recognized a warning to turn

around? known of that violet iris blooming inside

a diamond studded silver crown?)

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5blOhR5Er

but some know nothing of Mystery,

of that which resides in the Unknown,

and therefore will fail to discover the source

of that which calls out from their bones.

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhf4xkMepI

Alchemists entered her chambers,

silently passed through the halls,

hoped that soon they’d discover

the secrets and shelves on her walls.

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLu8SgtqCm

Behold, every room they came to

they discovered the door was unlocked,

but each had been emptied and abandoned,

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1kuP9pUfM

turned out Medeva had gone and run off…

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrEdgfzLTk

not a single book she’d forgotten,

not even a single line,

knew she must have taken them with her

— this future, she had divined —

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tP0bTANLY

they turned with hopes to catch her

but the door behind them barred,

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAK3JuDGFM

the system had been rigged so

they wouldn’t make it far.

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWDYmBXSjx

Those halls were made of granite, they knew of no escape;

realized long before they got there, she chose to seal their fate.
