While among the alleys and shipyards of Brust's Folly I keep hearing a song, or shanty. I'll have to ask Averdine about it if she'll come off the information. I know it means something to this rag-tag group, either its a ship or a planet in some system, but I feel like I know it, I hear the song and strange scents cross me, I hear sounds and feel like I've been misplaced in time.Where or what is this Loc-Nar?
Here's the story as I caught with a personal recorder while I was in The Stumblin'Star a few days ago. Once I started to hum along even the drunks hushed... there's something here.
They Saw
Miles and miles above the surface
The alarm begins to wail
Trajectory in error
They Knew
Vital systems all have failed
Across the ocean the shadow races
Quicker still across countryside
Astonished millions stand in silence
And point their fingers to the sky
They Suffered Loc-nar is lost to us
Never to return to the sky
They Saw
In the wreck the few survivors
Whisper scripture together in the rain
Searching madly for the jewel
They Knew
Their search is for not
Their search is in vain
This is all that survives we are damned
To serve one purpose here
To raise our graves to the sky
They Suffered Loc-nar is lost to us
Never to return to the sky
They See
Possessor and possessed
A traveler lost and alone
Shelter in rock from a sudden storm
In the dark soft green glow
Step by step obsession grows
And he holds the jewel to the sky
