Spring and Fall shall collide,
Who will win the Fate decide.
Fire nor Ice may stop this rhyme,
Through the paths of forgotten time.

He distinctly remembered addressing Lord CathaleKing, about twenty years ago, but with the usurper, who crowned himself the king of the realm, all the country kings and queens were to be called lords and ladies. A practice which was followed aeons ago.
