Tol-Timpinen

There's a tempest in yon horned moon,
And lightning in yon cloud,
And hard the music, mariners,
The wind is piping loud;
The wind is piping loud, my boys!
The lightning flashes free,
While the hollow oak our palace is,
Our heritage the sea.

Viserys Blurb #1: Fool Lord

"Madness, that's what this is," Grent said flatly, snarling at his bowl. It was rabbit stew tonight, grey and cold. "Utter madness. They have the advantage in every way, but that fool lord of ours presses on as though the battle is already won."

[battle]

He took the offered hand and clambered to his feet; though sore, he was not injured. Yorean swept his hand around in an expansive gesture that took in nearly all of the battlefield...if it could be called that. Grent blinked. Here and there he could make out a dead man cloaked in the blue-and-gold of Lord Grenaein's forces, but for the most part they had vanished; into thin air, it seemed. Viserys' men were all that remained.
"What the...?" was all he could think of to say.
Yorean raised an eyebrow at him. "Utter madness, eh? Fool lord? Well, if so, then I'd rather be behind him than whatever idiot led that rabblement."
