The Pirate King's Prophecy for Peace

The following is a prophecy granted to Sylyeras in my Tri-Panthonic War Campaign by the goddess of peace, Eldath.

~~~~~

I.
“On an island filled with strife
On an island, cities rife
With famine and greed
People desperately in need
Find the Peacekeeper
Who thrice escaped the Reaper

Sail west through the sea
Find my city, and my dishonest clergy
Shrines are better than temples
Change their hearts, despite their tempers
Accept and expect no less than ten
Leave the heretics, Peacekeeper says when

March south, unto the wall
There, Captain, heed my call.”

II.
“Boy with mind broken
Memories reawoken
Boy with hands Bloodied
And conscience muddied
By deeds so despicable
Led his heart to guilt formidable

Envy is his fatal flaw
Murder has been his divine law
Change Murder to Peace
Captain, find thy dev’lish niece
Upon stone pillars, arms up high
Crying out, “The end is nigh.”

Find her now? You never will
She waits for a prophecy to fulfill

If the boy confesses what he’s done…
Then I take both, each as my son
Captain Arcane, Cleric Divine
Both at the foot of my stoney shrine.”
