Ten rings there are, and nine toreson the battlechiefs of old Eight princely virtues, and seven sinsfor which a soul is sold Six is the sum of earth and sky,of all things meek and bold; Five is the number of ships that sailedfrom Atlantis lost and cold Four kings of the Westerlands were saved,three kingdoms now behold; Two came together in love and fear,in Llyonesse stronghold;One world there is, one God, and one birththe Druid stars foretold
PROLOGUE
Vortipor! Foremost in corruption, supreme in spite! A pig with its snout sunk in the entrails of its rival is not swifter than you to suck down iniquity. Your wickedness flows from your smoke-filled hall and inundates the land in a vile flood of wrongdoing.You call yourself noble. You call yourself king. You call yourself exalted. Exalted in sin, perhaps. You have wreathed your head with laurel, but this is not deserved – unless men now bestow the laurel crown for immorality, at which you are a champion among men!Urien Rheged! Your name is a reproach. Fornicator! Adulterer! Chief
