The Prophecy of the Moonlit Child

As spoken in the Veiled Tongue of the High Witches

"When the moon bends low to drink from the river of night,
and the stars recoil in hush'd reverence, then shall be born the Moonlit Child - of noble blood and divine marrow,
the heir of the twin serpents, Zakia and Malachai Zuwa.

From the womb of storm and sanctum, he shall rise -
half mortal, half whisper, wholly marked.
His eyes shall carry the echo of forgotten tides,
his breath, the scent of honeyed flame and ruin.

The High Rivers will part for him,
the spirits will kneel through unseen,
and even the silent ones beyond the veil will murmur his name.
For he is both the sin and the sanctity,
the fracture and the seal,
the promise unspoken since the First Eclipse.

When his shadow meets his reflection,
the serpent veve shall awaken beneath the moon, 
and the world shall tremble between inheritance and end.

He shall wander the towns of the Twenty-Six, each whispering a letter of his fate,
until he finds the Gast of Ash and Silence.
There, in hush between two heartbeats, he must choose: to redeem the light, or to enthrone the dark.

And so it was written in gold upon black parchment,
that the Moonlit Child will come again, bearing, the dawn within his left hand -
and the undoing within his right."
