Reverence

"None shall sing more loudly
My song rings louder than iron upon bone!
None will boast as heavy as I
My sons will never eclipse my might!"
"Hear not the cries of your dying
A silent hymn that dead men sing
Hear only sounds of silver coins
Falling before my feet"
"No bold man will stop me
As I sail through foreign lands
Boots crush the bones of kings
I reap the treasure from their hands"
"Bards will sing of my glory
So bright never shadowed by kin
Paths of crows, the river flows
Hidden treasures of chieftains slain"
