------------------------------------

To ye who have come 
we say: read these 
pages well. The Altar 
of Death will be harsh 
with failure.

The following riddle 
gives the clue. Chose 
wisely.

Note: the 
runes in the Book Of 
Passage are arranged 
to go down then 
accross as this:

|    /|

| /   |

Starting with .1.
I am here, I am there 
never sure of my 
step.

What may cross me 
cannot walk.

I am life and yet I am 
death.

Songs of joy, poems of 
love, melodies of hurt 
and loss,
All these have been 
written about me.

My mistress is never 
in my reach yet her 
touch moves me.

To and fro without 
fail. Be careful where 
I go.

Be wary, for the very 
thing that gives ye 
sway over me will kill
Ye the first chance it 
gets.

I am beautiful, I am 
powerful and men 
both covet my beauty
And riches whilst 
loathing the sorrow I 
contemptuously send 
them to.

Always coming and 
going.. never waiting 
on any save my 
mistress the moon.

1. I am the Sun rising 
and falling.

2. I am the Paladin in 
battle.

3. I am Life earnt in 
Death.

4. I am the battle, 
always anew.

5. I am last after the 
first.

6. I am ugliness after 
beauty.

7. I am a star, shining 
bright.

8. I am the wind 
forever there.

9. I am Darkness of 
the night.

10. I am the ocean tide.

11. I am Light after 
Dark.

12. I am Sadness for 
the loss of Happiness.

13. I am Love returned 
for kindness.

14. I am retribution 
come to pay back 
Deceit.

15. I am the strength 
of the victor standing 
tall over his enemies.

16. I am the first and 
will not be the last.
