====== The Dragon who lived in the sewers-O ======

  * Oh, I'll tell ye a tale that's not so old
  * A tale of the brave, the proud and the bold.
  * The tale of the dragon who eyes bright glowed,
  * The Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * -
  * Yes, the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * Oh, once the zoo kept beasts that thought
  * With no concern for if they ought
  * Until the queen with sympathy
  * Did speak the words that set them free
  * Their keepers groaned and grumbled loud
  * But swore an oath they’d not be cowed
  * -
  * So the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * The unbowed keepers went neath ground
  * With dragon’s egg that they had found
  * They raised the young, til mother came
  * And put an end to their mad game
  * She raised her young, in filth and grime
  * And hunted in the woods, part-time
  * -
  * Did the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * Poor Wilric rode the dragon’s mouth,
  * Toward the city, flying south
  * With Roths and Jackson giving chase
  * Were hot of foot and red of face
  * As Claire sends warning to the gate
  * In hope the troopers won’t be late.
  * -
  * For the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * Thence deep beneath the city fair
  * Where few remember, fewer dare.
  * Did Kezra, Heath and Jackson face
  * The mother dragon in her base.
  * The Dragon’s winning, Kezra falls
  * But Gedd the Ranger’s standing tall
  * -
  * By the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * His sword at ready, primed to strike,
  * He saved the youngling from the spike.
  * Then speaking freely with the dam
  * Negotiated cunning plan.
  * The dragons leave the city free
  * Took wing to forests by the sea
  * -
  * Flew the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * -
  * Youngling did come of age that day
  * As he beheld the bloody fray.
  * He chose his name to honour Gedd
  * T'was Roth, he chose – that thoroughbred,
  * Gedd and his siblings did respond,
  * And with tattoos they sealed the bond.
  * -
  * T'was young Roth who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o
  * T'was the Dragon who lived in the sewers-O.
  * Fol-de-rol-de rolo-o!


Wyn and his siblings helped to defeat a dragon living in the sewers of the city of Valerez, this how the dragon got his name - and the Roths got their tattoos.
