In the Jaws of the Dragon


Sirion


The house lay down in front of the central square. Imperative. Inviting. The nest of a serpent and the lair of a dragon. When Lady Merion arrived Nesrah was waiting, that man with oak-skin with the age of ancient times that served Nesrah, The Opulent. A wise old one. That night, an antifecer of the Judge will.


Nesrah: "Be welcome, Countess Marion. The Judge awaits."


The guide led her through the corridors into the luxury house. Tapestries stamped the walls with Erik victories against Fontan and the Sultanate. Some showing an older horseman walking on outlying islands. Nude Elune busts carved in white stone. Glorious statues. Carpets where the feet could get lost in tasty ways. Every thing leading to one direction.


Erik Eyolf: "I can recognize this perfume..."


The library was a nice place. Walls encrusted with books and ancient papyrus. A small collection of mysteries. A fireplace where the flames were dancing. Erik was looking at a statue of Elune who had his same size and wore the sacred armour. A warrior goddess.


Erik Eyolf: "Some men dared to mock me when I wear this armor. Fools. Only the Goddess could shape this armor for her true warrior. And only I can see the Goddess in a beautiful Lady."


Nesrah went out and closed the wooden door inscribed with snake symbols. Erik had a story to tell. And a beautiful Lady in red to hear.


We were talking...

about the space between us all

and the people

who hide themselves behind a wall

of illusion

never glimpse the truth

when it's far too late...

when they pass away...


We were talking about the love we all could share

when we find it...

to try our best to hold it there

(with our love)

With our love we could save the world,

If they only knew...


Try to realise its all within yourself

No one else can make you change,

And to see you're really only very small

and life goes on within you

and without you.

We were talking

about the love thats gone so cold

And the people

who gain the world and lose their soul

they don't know

they can't see..

Are you one of them?


When you've seen beyond yourself

then you may find peace of mind is waiting there

And the time will come when you see

we're all one and life goes on within you and without you.
