    Look out to see who the next will be
    Entering this circle of old oak trees
    His voice, they say, is vibrant and lush
    His brothers recall such sound only once
    "It is him!" they say, "Fortold in the past!"
    "The one who could bring both fortune and wrath!"
    The young drisac looked on in awe
    He did not see what the others saw
    "I know not what you speak of!" he quickly replied
    Then silenced rushed in and he went to his side
    He felt a wet wind, like that by the sea
    When he arose, he overlooked a valley
    Instantly, thick gray fog rolled in
    He could feel the moisture all over his skin
    He looked all around and muffled a scream
    A path in the fog formed, so it seemed
    He pressed on foward, knowing not where it led
    It seemed like he had traveled for hours on end
    The fog then receded to show him a lake
    Cold mist made his body tremble and shake
    Just as his mind found the courage to speak
    He was interrupted by a voice, soft and weak
    In an instant, the lake was gone and lost
    Enclosed by a fog and chill, colder than frost
    With a gasp he awoke, as though he wasn't gone
    His brothers were around him, with arms drawn
    They asked what he saw, but he wouldn't say
    He just new in his heart that it wasn't the day
    Thereafter in dreams, he heard the voice again
    "Choose your path wisely, for it could bring great pain."
