“All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frostFrom the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be the blade that as broken
The crownless again shall be king.”
