By Elhewitt
I was chained but not broken,
beaten but not bowed.
The fire marked my silence,
the storm made it loud.
I do not kneel for tyrants,
nor gods who curse the flame.
My name was born in thunder
and I rise to wear that name.
Let them come with shackles,
with blades and masks of war.
I have walked through death already
and I do not fear it anymore.

We are the ones who remember.
We gather flame, not for burning
but for warmth,
for light,
for the stories etched in smoke.
We mend what war breaks,
not with iron,
but with herbs, hands, and hope.
The scrolls whisper.
The cauldron sings.
We are the midwives of lore,
the keepers of emberlight,
the fire that never fades.
We are the House of the Flame
We are fire, we are the warriors of ignis
And in our silence, the world heals

(As sung by the kitchen fires)
Boldolph the black wolf sniffed the stew,
His belly growled: “This meat will do!”
He tiptoed past the snoring men,
And dipped a paw in the broth again.
Morrigan caught him, gave a glare,
“You thieving pup, don’t you dare!”
But Boldolph smirked with sausage pride,
And gobbled half the pot inside.
The cooks awoke to clatter and howl,
The stew was gone, the bowl was foul.
They found a trail of bones and crumbs,
And one big wolf with sleepy gums.
Now every night the guards are warned,
“Keep watch on Boldolph, ever adorned.
For if you blink or turn your back,
He’ll steal your soup and leave no snack!”
