the tree of Y'arda
Among the dark..
like some great ancient sea creature of untransparent glass,
ghostly green
its voices, the calls from beyond
its shape, the shapelessness of shadow
it is the deep, in the fluttering of nights wind...
the name of Shshthvaa'nmnyaaughmunthehr tower
its stone rings with a great darkness as a gong
the shadow of mist
a small flame, dissolving the waters of dryness
in its salt
it dissolves... Sslayhqth'lu'u (Sslauhth'uu)
of nothingness, a deep cold breath
as if in waters of dried silence...
