Ringing the Changes<br>

The Cerulean Spire watches over Cyrene.<br>
Those who there reside<br>
Also watch their mountain home:<br>
Ward her with great pride.<br>

Prospero, Lord of Wealth, and current<br>
Patron of Cyrene<br>
Bestows his great benevolence with<br>
A wit that's ever keen.<br>

Blu, beloved dragon, raised<br>
On Cyrene's herbal stock,<br>
Now guards her fully fiercely as<br>
A shepard does his flock.<br>

The Vashnars, like no city walls<br>
Built by human hands,<br>
Protect Cyrene, encircling her.<br>
These are cherished lands.<br>

From Centre Crossing one can go<br>
In, north, south, east, or west.<br>
Cyrene, too, is at a crossroads and<br>
Must choose which way is best.<br>

Security must be preserved;<br>
We must maintain respect.<br>
This compass will alone not show us<br>
Which path is correct.<br>

The age of Aeryi has now passed,<br>
And history will tell<br>
Both those who loved and hated her<br>
She served her city well.<br>

A new age, a new century,<br>
New leadership, old goals.<br>
Listen to the future as<br>
Cyrene's clock tower tolls.<br>
