“Full moon calls thee--
Shai-hulud shall thou see;

Luck with us will then abound,
What we seek for shall be found
In the land of solid ground.”

But all of these are as nothing….” She closed her fingers into a fist. “…without a ruler who knows the art of ruling. Make that the science of your tradition!”
