Ollam Lanea Inghean Uí ChiaragáinRoxbury MillAtlantiaWhat has become of Lord Kelson,Whom we held so close and cherished so much. He wandered wayward--the wind took him from usAs it blew across the threshold, Only the dark moon was left to usWhen he went to follow fire and battleWhere angels fear to tread.
Call him back from his travels,That scribbler of letters, our seeker of truth Who wages war against poverty itself And strives to feed us all and heal us well With soothing broths and sage-redolent stews.As winter nears, I am ashamed to sayHow I lost sight of him as he strode toward danger.Bid the Wind carry him back to our doors, Make him swift as the greyhound.Let a soft breeze feed the hearth’s embers as we wait. Hope for tomorrow is our only feast.
Atlantia, reach your hands out to Lord Kelson, As the wind and waves embrace him day upon day. Call him a Companion of the Order of the Golden DolphinAnd Grant him Arms as noble as his works. So say we, Eckehard Rex and Jane Regina, Monarchs of the Azure and Argent Kingdom of AtlantiaAs we seek our own true heirs this Sixth day of November A.S. LVI at our Crown Tournament
