The Hanging Man's Song - Verse IV

A traitor spread this forbidden song among the Hand of Trust. Blindfolded he hangs, unknown to rest even in death.

Verse IV: The Star Returns

Who did the river return? Not a corpse, nor a ghost. Nemo.

His memories were gone. His eyes still burned.

One face returned. Then another. Gavan. The star-chasers. The road they walked together...

So upstream he walked. Through the dark. Toward the man upon the summit.

Tell me, friends...

Can a fallen star stay fallen? Clouds may hide its light, but not forever. A forgotten name is spoken again. Nemo's song isn't over. Nor is Gavan's.

Fill your cup. The last verse has yet to be sung.
