Elegy to the First Son

Slowing, falling, ever-calling,
crashing under eldritch crushing,
whisp'ring, seeping, ever-weeping,
tearful broken first-born son.

Warden's water wetting decking,
booted rough-shod footsteps stepping,
puddle draining, crimson staining,
marking laying first-born son.

Soft-winged twilight wreckage drifting,
swiftly moored to veering anchor.
Angered well-read drifter sifting,
rider's flesh to sieve the soul.

Sleeping, screaming, ever-dreaming,
come to me, my first-born son.
This wicked world's mine to conquer,
mind-to-mind for first-born son.

Random encounters and interesting character-driven plot resulted in the tragic death of a well-liked NPC. An elegy to Fishton.
