This land was once ruled by a splendid queen
Who sword-to-sword slew proud kings three
Long centuries now her match hath not been seen
Her grave lieth ’neath yon withered tree.— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 2, 2018
She kissed the storms as she fought them, defying all the thunder.

In Dead Kings’ Lane the pleasure-queens look older
As they loiter ’neath guttering torch lights
And the wind glides colder as the monsters grow bolder
Soon come their raiding nights— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 13, 2018
She devours, smiles like a shark, and moves on. Like a dictator now safely dead, life is quieter in her wake.
