Wintermist Song/Anthem
The Heart of the North (Based on "Bogurodzica")
by Paul fitz Denis – with revisions by A’isha al-Raqqasa
Listen to the story, hear how Wintermist was born
Tell the saga of creation of the Heart of the North.
First came those of Darkwell, to this land both rich and fair
Darkness passing into Winter in the Heart of the North.
Ebb and flow of households, Orphans and Clan Caradawc
They are gone now but remembered by the Heart of the North.
Kalé brought us forward, leading gentles near and far,
Choosing Einarr as her Baron of the Heart of the North.
Artisans and heralds, Ogres, Horsemen all stand proud
For the honor that you all bring to the Heart of the North.
Now all raise your glasses, join the toast with loud Hazzah!
Drink to Einarr and to Sunnifa. Hail the Heart of the North.
What the future will bring, none can say and none can know
We, together, greet this new day for the Heart of the North.
