Opal Grainwind Chapter 15
Our strange visitor
her mask undone
she began to gibber.
She ranted about
losing her soul
and Lord of Feasts betrayed.
She claimed to have learned
bizarre magic
with which she killed giants.
Angry shrieks replaced
by tearful sobs
Fern claimed a want to help.
She cried as she said,
“All good turns foul,
my deeds became evil.”
Abruptly silent
tears vanishing
her eyes shone calm and cold.
She said quietly,
voice tinged with rage,
“Join with me or perish.”
No hesitation,
we attacked them
to slay these wizards quick.
I struck with my friends
wielding the strong
Sword of Frozen Sorrow.
A dizzying cloud
engulfed my folk.
I too stumbled and fell.
I struggled to rise
and fight the fog
that confounded my mind.
My thoughts became clear.
I must defend
Queen Quickstream of Icebrunt.
