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

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6wKcQPv8P

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

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVCKgahhXF

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

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N606efj3h

— 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

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwWBvwaDus

— 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

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh17j4SGytM

(lost mages’ magic, calculable madness,

Medeva prepared to conquer,

and though there were skeptics who doubted

their existence

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcNFzI1SrE

she knew they were real by her visions),

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucqnva8aE5

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 —

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiHtH1S0WV

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,

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALERtpfncR

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.

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWKyTD4j95

(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?)

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEKtfV84Le

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.

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGyYNuq7Yy

Alchemists entered her chambers,

silently passed through the halls,

hoped that soon they’d discover

the secrets and shelves on her walls.

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PObgwC0Od

Behold, every room they came to

they discovered the door was unlocked,

but each had been emptied and abandoned,

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPcgdBPZUn

turned out Medeva had gone and run off…

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7o8EOAcAB

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 —

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ts6RqLU4h

they turned with hopes to catch her

but the door behind them barred,

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc1cqK1nEb

the system had been rigged so

they wouldn’t make it far.

533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5fodL39MM

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

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