Reavers' Remorse
Remorse of the Reavers
Crestfallen feathers and Spindlewood smoke
exhaust from the clashing Colossals asunder
The wail of the bairn crosses plains unforeseen
towards her cove where the she-beast lay broken
Though bakers burn and tiber turns
the keepers call through crashing ice
as brazen prow breaches broken sea
and battered oarsmen yearn for home
their iron turns a’rattle, spinning sharper on sparking whetstone
While the hands of men grasp their grips of leather
the spray breaking tears on their cheeks
As the yew bow is strung, her innocence is undone
Fletching their arrows with fallen crest-feathers
