HELM A DOOMED CHIMERA.

Lo, destiny crooks a finger only to those whose eyes peer beyond þe next tempest. Take custody of a faltering war-barge that wanders the outer brine of Dastgerd.
Thy wrists y-braced to a wan terminal of bone-whyte and tarnysshed latoun, þou steerest Ablahshikar by murke point-nettes and sputteryng tables.

LET FOLIOS GOUT WITH ÞI SHAME & GLORYE

Alle naviȝacioun is nought but grym runes crawing on a text-bord. Þou beholdest glutted ASCII matrices & þe stark lore of attricioun. Hert-cave brestes, self-flayne limmes for spare-stukkes, and blind brodsides in milk-fog ben sacrementes of schame and grace. Brand þilke sigils into þe Folios of Þal-Drayem through many lif-loans, proof of how keenly þou and þine brueden crisped in þe pale rush.

TURN HOUND ON HOUND, & CAST HEM INTO HEMSELF

Lif hengeþ by malice forged to a gleyve. Pit towering bastions and mercenary flotillas against one another. You deploy smoke to shroud your heading, whip bird swarms until they tattle on the unsuspecting, and seduce rival armed factions into merry mutual evisceration. Cram þy crew in þe gnasty cogges þat þe dial mote steal another watch. Surrender a limb to make unanesthetized oblations to the Syzygy. Wring utility from the deep. Turn the hostility of the waters into a weapon of your own.

TRUST NO DIAL.

Gauges film over with green rot and bilious vapor, and their needles burrow themselves in the casing. Smite þe frame with a trusty mall til þe scale disgorgeþ its treason. Peer through þe quavering ciphers to glimpse þe nude doome of coal and decay.
Haply, haply, whan þou flayest þe laste viserne of Þal-Drayem þe Candell-Sæ, þe blanchte grin shal wyden for þe likewise.
