Four verses.
Fair Feiala, ancient priestess,
Star-born heir of mighty heroes,
Down into the sunless darkness
Underneath the lonely mountain
Went, while Fanhal raged in battle.
Down to chambers dark and ancient
Which were delved before the Children—
Ere the Children of the Water
Came to dwell on Ranhor’s Isle—
Those who delved them came before us.
Those who delved them came before us—
Those who delved the ancient caverns.
No man knows them, no man names them,
But their eyes were hard upon her
When she walked those lightless tunnels.
Down she walked, until the Guardian
Of the ancient waters waiting
There she found, and then awakened—
Wakened him from ageless slumber;
She spoke the Name and woke the sleeper.
