Michael J. Sullivan Quote
Gift am I, of Ferrol’s handthese laws to halt the chaos be,No king shall die, no tyrant cleavedsave by the perilous sound of me. Cursed the silent hand that strikesforever to his brethren lost,Doomed of darkness and of lightso be the tally and the cost. Breath upon my lips announcethe gauntlet loud so all may hear,Thine challenge for the kingly seatso all may gather none need fear. But once upon a thousand threeunless by death I shall cry,No challenge, no dispute proceeda generation left to die. Upon the sound, the sun shall passand with the rising of the new,Combat will begin and lastuntil there be but one of two. A bond formed betwixt opponentsprotected by Ferrol’s hand,From all save the blade, the bone,and skill of the other’s hand. Should champion be called to fightevoked is the Hand of Ferrol,Which protects the championed from alland champion from all—save one—from peril. Battle is the end for onefor the other all shall sing.For when the struggle at last is donethe victor shall be king
