{{lorebox|His true name none shall ever know. 
Wand'rer call Him, whose path did go 
from highest plane where He was born 
to our World, broken and forlorn. 
A Godling true, strong was His arm 
and keen his gaze. Such radiant charm 
infus'd His voice that none would dare 
deny His wish. Black was his hair. 
Why left He heaven? None may know 
who are born of this World, far below 
that primal sphere where He was rais'd. 
But leave He did, whose name is praised. 
Others followed, companions true. 
Kenaryn, armed with bow of yew 
and blacksmith Thurin with his axe. 
These three, and others, turned their backs 
on Paradise and left, descending 
to spaces bounded yet unending.

There long the Wand'rer and his train 
walked o'er a formless, empty plain 
where Law and Chaos, Dark and Light 
frothed together under endless Night. 
One feature broke the endless plain, 
an Orb of ebon, smooth and plain. 
The Wand'rer moved to look within 
but of a sudden the harsh din 
of Demon voices shook the air, 
and Prince Kolaur was standing there. 
"Who comes unbidden to my realm?" 
the demon hissed, and donned his helm 
of hardest adamant. "I meant 
no trespass," Wand'rer spake. "Sent 
from Paradise by mine own whim." 
And all the Demons laughed at him. 
"Go back, Godling, from whence thou came!" 
Kolaur did cry, his eyes like flame. 
"Your haughty eyes shall never spy 
what wonders in that orb do lie. 
And take these other wastrels back 
When you depart, and look not back."

For Wand'rer's honor, thus denied, 
a battle shook the Void outside 
the Universe that mortals know 
whence Chaos would deal such a blow. 
The demon legions were as sand, 
and in each clawed and twisted hand 
there gleamed a long and wicked blade, 
but the Wanderer was unafraid. 
As ocean waves against a line 
of pillars hewn of marble fine 
the Chaos horde did strike, and melt 
away when Wand'rer's wrath they felt. 
And each companion fought as well 
And gaily sang as their foes fell. 
Kolaur's fell spear possessed such might 
that its point could e'en a Godling bite. 
He found the Wand'rer, high in the flood 
of battle, struck, and drew His blood. 
The Shaper stayed at Wand'rer's side 
when Callynthir pierced Wand'rer's hide. 
Thurin's stroke left the Demon dead, 
and all its twisted legions fled. 
Kenaryn's arrows, thick as flies, 
Found their black hearts and pierced their eyes.

So Wand'rer did the battle win, 
and, drawing nigh the orb, look'd in.

Three Orbs of stone and ice were there, 
like Pearls cast into darkest mere. 
"What is this place?" said He, "This prize 
all Chaos hid from Godling's eyes?" 
Of His companions, none could tell 
their names, or what beasts might yet dwell 
in riven deep or icy height 
of these worlds, seal'd in orb of Night. 
One world shone brightly, as a jewel, 
to this one Wand'rer came to rule.|A fragment of the ancient Elvish epic Tae ap Arpalonamil, "The Far Wanderings of the Great Father" written by an unknown Author in the Age of Twilight.}}
