    Lore The Flame Beneath the Chase.

    Lore knelt before the cairn fire.The caves hummed with old power the breath of ancestors, the drip of unseen water.

    He wrote by flame-light, ink made from soot and oak sap, each word a prayer that the world would not forget itself.

    Above, the forest moaned as wind wound through hollow trees.He could feel the weight of those watching not hostile, but hungry for remembrance.

    When the candle flickered, it cast shadows that moved on their own.Lore did not flinch. “Guard them,” he murmured, “even when they forget our names.

  • Boldolph’s Oath

    Boldolph’s Oath

    I once wore skin like warriors do,
    A man of blade, of blood, of pride.
    But pride turned sour, and wrath I knew,
    Till wolf became the shape I hide.

    My Morrigan, lost in fur and bone,
    Her eyes still see the stars I swore.
    We haunt the edge, we roam alone,
    Two cursed hearts that hunt no more.

    But when the babe was cast to pine,
    Alone beneath the howling wind,
    I made an oath this soul is mine.
    I’ll guard him where no love has been.

    Let fire fall, let time undo,
    Let gods forget the names they gave.
    So long as breath remains in you,
    I am the shadow that will not cave.
