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

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1btMSROV4K

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

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzscoRpSMqo

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

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5MvDEFqOy

— 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

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gOQyG98oo

— 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

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAA2qup6Nwj

(lost mages’ magic, calculable madness,

Medeva prepared to conquer,

and though there were skeptics who doubted

their existence

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeNFXfHdgM

she knew they were real by her visions),

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCszUoCl6E

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 —

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqS47JwFP1

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,

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4HUi0SSHP

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.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg0T6Uzp0c

(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?)

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbqSfA189O

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.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsQWLZZmuL

Alchemists entered her chambers,

silently passed through the halls,

hoped that soon they’d discover

the secrets and shelves on her walls.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOubIy3S4U

Behold, every room they came to

they discovered the door was unlocked,

but each had been emptied and abandoned,

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnuOxlapys

turned out Medeva had gone and run off…

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetKIXhaXjV

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 —

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlR4iUcOFG

they turned with hopes to catch her

but the door behind them barred,

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslGfpydV2q

the system had been rigged so

they wouldn’t make it far.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5rhJfVIXo

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

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