A flicker of firelight shone on The Two Moons,
They represent the evil of the three runes.
Every so often they disappear behind the dark veils,
And when they reappear they cause the shrieking wails.
One death after the first,
For blood is what The Two Moons thirst.
Even in their graves the men fear,
The Two Moons that will soon reappear.

The three runes are from the language of the evil,
That lurk on the two dark hills.
Only in the dark veil,
May the veil of the two hills surely fail.

The first rune is the shape of a bird with a broken wing,
That signifies the deadly ping.
Which occurs when that rune is recited,
And when the grave is ignited.
The second rune is the shape of a knife,
That signifies the lost life.
Which occurs when the knife strikes,
And with the rotting of the pikes.
The third and last rune,
Was the shape of a moon.
It signifies the two moons,
With evil that fumes.

To the grave you will go,
When the two moons bring you great woe.
Even then the two moons will not stop haunting you,
And indeed the meeting with the two moons you will rue.
