The thunder of the Spirits wings Brings terror to the hearts of kings.

…Where summer’s hand is heavy on the snow, And springtide bursts the insuperable floe, North, by the limit of the ocean, stands A castle, lord of those far footless lands That are the wall of that most monstrous world About.whose pillars Behemoth is curled, About whose gates Leviathan is strong, Whose secret terror sweetens not for song.
