SUMMARY: (I blame my Silly!Muse for this one.) GT1 runs into a bit of a problem when it appeals to an unknown village for help.
"White is the color of death," she said,
With a tsk in her voice and a tilt to her head.
"What did you think we do, break bread?"
As she locked them away in the dark.
White is for bones and white is for snow.
White is for spirits and Wraith.
White is the bale and the bane of us all,
And black is the color of faith.
Away in the dark they fumed and they railed,
On colors and legends in campfire tales,
Till the moon reemerged from her dark diamond veil,
And showed them the way from the earth.
Black is for luck and black is for night
Black is for shadows and faith.
Black is the blanket that covers us all,
And white is the color of Wraith.
And never again did the strangers come,
Waving their flags of truce,
And never again did the strangers come,
Believing unnatural truths.
White is for bones and white is for snow.
White is for spirits and Wraith.
White is the bale and the bane of us all,
And black is the color of faith.
