He came from the seas With fire at his back His homeland shrouded in smoke For days he walked Below the old stars Sleeping beneath the tall oaks Until he came to a church Abandoned and near ruined A place of the gods that he knew Removing his armor He kneeled down and prayed While behind him long shadows grew In the midst of his orison Did he fall into sleep Brought not by his own weary mind Then down he was dragged In dream and in space Never once looking behind Fallen victim he had To the Queen of these lands Who none would ever suspect A sly young pythoness Herself ensnared Chosen as the Hollow One's elect

The Fall of Hyrilyn
He came from the seas With fire at his back His homeland shrouded in smoke For days he walked Below the old stars Sleeping beneath the tall oaks Until he came to a church Abandoned and near ruined A place of the gods that he knew Removing his armor He kneeled down and prayed While behind him long shadows grew In the midst of his orison Did he fall into sleep Brought not by his own weary mind Then down he was dragged In dream and in space Never once looking behind Fallen victim he had To the Queen of these lands Who none would ever suspect A sly young pythoness Herself ensnared Chosen as the Hollow One's elect
