| Out of the sea and no longer wind-driven, an ominous shore beckoned him
|
| Murmurous waves comforted thy rebirth from the wamb of the strangling ocean
|
| Kardios — sprawled on a while coast, alive and ashore far from home
|
| Reminding the garden where a tune brought mischief a quivering shadow slid
|
| across him!
|
| All of a sudden something towered before him, an assembly of giants older than
|
| time
|
| Weakend and weary with a harassing arcanum they eyed Kardios, Nephol their name
|
| Further they heard Kardios’tale, Enek and Yod and Lotay
|
| Solemn silence fell upon them for Theona’s Atlantis was drowned in the sea…
|
| Out of the sea — from dark waters he rose
|
| Kardios — bearing the burden and throe of memory
|
| Theona overrade the presage of old
|
| Kardios, who drowned the isle kingdom… kissing the kiss of death!
|
| In bright unbroken beams from the far untold unknown
|
| Like a torrent of foam he came
|
| An obscure structure without shape or form
|
| Coming from the skies faster than light
|
| «Atlantis, Atlantis has flowered forever
|
| For Theona has resigned as her queen
|
| Worshipped and honored and loved but kissed never…
|
| So is Theona and always has been»
|
| «Fairer Theona than moon or than sun
|
| Fairer stan stars in the vault of the skies
|
| No man can say when her reign has begun
|
| Lovely and queenly and regal and wise
|
| So it was told by the gods in high heaven
|
| Atlantis shall live and forever prevail
|
| Until her sweet lips in a love-kiss are given
|
| So runs the prophecy, so says the tale
|
| Forever Atlantis has flowered but this
|
| Is told of Theona — the moment that she grants
|
| To a lover the boon of a kiss
|
| Atlantis, Theona will drown in the sea…"
|
| Out of the sea — seeking remission
|
| Predestination — the harper from the sea
|
| Nephol island — sullen from a riddle, known as filth
|
| Exemption from a substance they called Fith…
|
| Fith subsisted and throve of Nephal flesh
|
| Brought upset and turmoil
|
| Burdened with dismay anf bereft of hope
|
| The giants hearts failed them
|
| Devoured with ambition he was led before a well
|
| Once the home of spirits, convenient of Fith
|
| A weird blotch of wastness to separate the sun
|
| Far below the well a pallid spot of silver light
|
| Peering in the void old Atlantis came to mind
|
| Theona’s tender eyes in the raging, roaring flood
|
| An edge of icy-blue from the cave community
|
| To combat Fith and cast off the burden memory!
|
| Prepared well for the finale he descended to Fith, the luminous mass from the
|
| stars
|
| The flaplike projection thrusted Kardios with a touch like a tongue of bright
|
| flames
|
| But the glow of awareness in Fith’s tissue blinked out, the panting breath
|
| labored then stopped!
|
| So it was told and freedom was given to the giant kin, Nephol their name!
|
| «My sword was wonders shall we twain not do?
|
| The world is ours to roam and render clean
|
| Against whatever peril comes in view
|
| My arm is strong, your point and edge are keen»
|
| «For storming citadels for holding clear
|
| From sail and sloth, for glory in the sun
|
| For showing enemies the face of fear
|
| My good companion, you and I are one!»
|
| Out of the sea — remission was found
|
| Kardios — the straggler from the sea
|
| Farewell to the cave community
|
| Walking past the trunks he hummed Theona’s tune… |
