The Giant Of Inespell


    In the great past, before the Greater Tribe knew of grain and ale.
    Before the cow and the horse grazed the meadows of Rannek,
    Our people herded goats and marched with the seasons.

    Upon the Northern Lights, they came
    Riding the Northern Winds, they came.
    The Eldrim they called themselves.
    And at first, we loved them.

    They taught us of metals and the forge
    We taught them our stars and our sky

    They taught us to shape the stone
    We taught them to sail our waters

    They taught us to color the flowers
    We taught them to make them bloom

    Then they taught us glamour
    We taught them the ways of our world

    For all their haughtiness, they were not our masters
    They were as brothers, we were kin
    But as brothers do, we often did fight

    It has come to pass that their true selves were shown
    Interlopers who covet our lands
    For while they thought themselves great, they lost their own

    But as they learned our ways, they grew strong
    And their glamour was beyond our own
    In each battle, we grew desperate

    By inch and by furlong, we lost our lands
    And the Eldrim, strong as they are
    We grew small underneath their yoke

    But for all that they taught
    they did not teach us of iron
    For iron was their bane

    Iron is now our blessing

    The greatest of us, the most learned
    With all the glamour ours could muster
    We forged with the fires of our mountains a protector

    A Giant of Iron, the Giant of Inespell
    Guided by our collective rage
    Condensed under the violent vortices of time

    Under the guidance of the Watcher of the Pools
    The Giant marched forth against their floating towns
    With iron and with fire, it wrought destruction

    Those of the Eldrim who thought highly of themselves
    were then brought low by the Giant's might
    And on that day, we taught them of iron and the fire of our rage

    Inespell's Giant 🔗

    in the distant past, before the dawn of the Greater Tribe
    in the distant past, before we knew of grain
    in the distant past, before we knew of ale

    in the distant past, before the cows grazed
    in the distant past, before the horse grazed
    in the distant past, before the great owl flew

    in the distant past, we herded our goats
    we marched with the seasons
    within the meadows of Rannek

    in the distant past, they came to this land
    upon the Northern Lights
    in the distant past, they rode the Northern Winds
    in the distant past, Eldhellen they were called

    in the distant past, we were infatuated with them

    They taught us the forge
    We taught them our stars

    They taught us to craft the stone
    We taught them to sail our waters

    They taught us to color the flowers
    We taught them to make them bloom

    Then they taught us glamour
    We taught them the ways of our world

    Despite their haughtiness, we were not beneath them
    We were as kin
    As kin does, we often fought

    They have showed their true selves
    Invaders who want our lands
    because they learned our ways, the grew strong
    their glamour was greater

    from inch to league our lands were lost the strong Eldrim trampled us like mere children
