The Prophecy of the Three

The Three shall come, leaving early, arriving late,

The lifestages of all men:

Child of Blood, Child of Earth, Child of the Sky.

Each man, formed in blood and born in it,

Walks the Earth and sustained by it,

Reaching to the sky, and sheltered beneath it,

He ascends there only in his ending,becoming part of the stars.

Blood gives new beginning, Earth gives sustenance,

The Sky gives dreams in life-eternity in death.

Thus the Three shall be, one to the other.
