Deep in the once grassy, emerald eyes
of the world, what a country you’d find!
An ancient, elden, tragic, folk
crafted miracles with arcana intwined!
They rose to the gods!
Delved darkness’s maw!
Even claimed fealty to the Fields of Sleep!
…Yet eventually heights all
must succumb to the fall,
and pay for hubris most steep.
Now naught does remain
but the bones and the frames
of those who could claim they Knew.
… however…
As the sands erode
the cracks and the folds,
lost echoes now yearn for the dreamers.
Those ill-fated tread
through the long-dusted dread:
the strong, weak, cruel and witty.
For they seek the cry
of history’s rise-
The silent hopes of Crumblecity!
