Chapter 1: Round 1: Feeding the Beast

Chapter Text

 


Waning Wick

"Wick flickers;
flickering wick
casting shadows foreshadowing
lights diminishing flick.

The howling wind,
not the breath of the forest -
but, that of the light
that's cast before us.

It's dim, dimming glow
a beckoning; a warning -

the lantern must be
fed before morning."


Night Forest

"The creature is darkness,
but its breath is the light-
not of silver moon,
but fire bright.

It's dimming, waning
is damnation to all;
whether the Beast feeds
or whether he falls.

With

crickling, crackling tinder it'll flare-
as long as the Edelwood blooms in his care.

So follow, little traveler,
the flickering light
and (go home/grow in) to
the forest this night."
