(So this one is a little different from my normal texts. Rather than asking for a specific time or place, Duke Hrorek wanted a scroll “like Loki writing Darth Vader’s ducal scroll.” So with the goal of writing a text that was the embodiment of an Iron Maiden album cover, I wrote the following.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

CALL the fury of the Outlands to battle! The crack of lightning, the boom of thunder, the roar of fire besides. A son of the stag commands you to ride, the furies of nature the King\u2019s right to call. The song of steel answers to Iohann, the strength of the plains with Martine beside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Son of the stag, blood drenched battle strider, Hrorek the\nWolf\u2019s Son is called to his King. Twice has he led the Green host to battle,\ndeath riding swift in the saddle beside. Twice has he torched the lands of the\nsun, the warriors he found there put to the sword. But two times also has he\nmeted out justice, word famed wisdom given in peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the halls of the golden let all now proclaim the worth of\nthe Wolf\u2019s Son who stands first among them. The Scorpion\u2019s beloved, venerable\nspear kin, royal gold on his arm and his brow and his heart. The helm of a\nJarl, the spear of an Ealdorman, no longer reflect his standing with Us.\nInstead let us gird him with sword and with scepter, the signs of a scion of\nthe most-noble line. Axe bearers guard him, announce now his word fame,\nproclaim to all the favor his valor has won. Most of all now We give him the\ntitle of Duke for his keeping, the Strawberry leaves of honor to bear ever\nmore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Call the people of the Outlands to witness the birth of a\nDuke, the Wolf\u2019s son\u2019s ascendance. Let fire and fury be called down around him,\nburning those who deny now his rights. So we have scribed in the walls of our\nmead halls, etched in the bones of the foemen he\u2019s slain. Written in glory and\nlimned in honor, on the 4th of May AS 54<\/p>\n\n\n\n
