You know I don't think the originators of the w**dch*ck ever had
_any_ idea their rhyme would ever be used in this way.

Don't underestimate how sinister the Immortal Elven Conspiracy is or
the fact that the rhyme is actually a powerful centering chant in
Sperethiel. Damn sneaky Gits.




Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal
names more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves,
they answered to another name, because if another discovered their real
name, it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
