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

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6eyjZcGaE

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

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUzj0dYmOB

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

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU50VhFS2K0

— 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

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc2XZLLPG6

— 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

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSi0p3aQ8E

(lost mages’ magic, calculable madness,

Medeva prepared to conquer,

and though there were skeptics who doubted

their existence

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalTOnQDqrp

she knew they were real by her visions),

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsvAqlycOg

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 —

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5foYKFlCD

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,

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjodnZVas3f

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.

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9tbcpMMPc

(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?)

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5g2ESeuTh

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.

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNG37oEKDTg

Alchemists entered her chambers,

silently passed through the halls,

hoped that soon they’d discover

the secrets and shelves on her walls.

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RlZllk8ON

Behold, every room they came to

they discovered the door was unlocked,

but each had been emptied and abandoned,

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozCVk2d1TS

turned out Medeva had gone and run off…

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI4NgrpnRU

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 —

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ccacVgiFu

they turned with hopes to catch her

but the door behind them barred,

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ks8xB4HX2

the system had been rigged so

they wouldn’t make it far.

543Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVaKt8S8za

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

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