Witness the miracle, as others have,
for only by witnessing it
may we understand the shedded
skins of our enemy.
Hooded and fanged and venomed are these wights,
wright-formed and wrought in Vulcan's furnace,
twisted like the thoughts of our own making
or else rippling against itself.
Muscle-bound and ichor-fueled reptiles,
tear at them my companions brave,
topple the archaic tower
and heat their cold-blooded
flesh with hateful blades.
Remind the kings which class
stands supremely inviolate.
MAMMALIA
is writ mandate.
