Deep beneath the waters of an ancient river, in a dark stone cave, the river witches sang.

For a time, they had rested, for peace had reigned.  But now, a new threat loomed on the currents.

Hand in hand, they sang, swaying to the melody, as the eldest sat in her throne of antlers, watching.  On her hands, three eyes, set in amber rings, swiveled, nervous and watching also.

Daughters six, heed our call,

The oceans are threatened, all,

For a time, there was peace,

But that too has been released,

She once sat on Miromara's throne,

But now her power again has grown,

She has bidden her time, in waters dark and deep,

Another merl's soul, she wishes to reap,

With her take heed,

Down dark paths she shall lead,

In Abbadon's wake,

A dark path, she shall make,

Daughter of traitors and thieves,

All but, consumed by grief,

Power and revenge, she wants,

And for them, your lives, she shall haunt.
