The evil deceiver
slithers away
to watch from the shadows,
dark and dim.
The first beam of light
strikes the traitor from within
and the sleepers begin to stir.
Time to break the seals.
What will be revealed?
New avenues of power
are shaken by events
he did not foresee
but surrounded by his minions,
he wags his silver tongue...
for a princely fee,
while his shadow givernment
quakes at what has come to be.

Remind me to never get on your bad side, Ida.  Could taste the venom in this...and you are not alone in your disgust here.
