Young Blood (The Letter)

Young Blood (The Letter)

You may ask me who I am, but my name is long forgotten

I’ve served here since before memories began, inheriting my obligation

Three generations serve the family I have found

And I The Watcher, honor wishes from this ground

As those before have done since all of this began; A form of honorary station.

Bring me young blood for I see that you are able

Let them play down in the basement. Dine here at our table

Will you offer up the things that I request?

Let them climb into the hayloft

And explore the house’s depths.

Have you found what lies within? Have her secrets been unsealed?

The Family’s voices will all soon be revealed, in one harmonic resolution

Soothe your torment with lullabies, set your children to dream

I will call you all. Here to me. Give the house its satisfaction

Bring me young blood for I see that you are able

Let them play down in the basement. Dine here at our table

Will you offer up the things that I request?

Let them climb into the hayloft

And explore the house’s depths.

Say their names so I can plan this here & now. I’m sick to death of all this waiting

This information will inform the work I do. Where will they sleep & where will you?

Once I know I’ll call and draw them close. As was once done here to me.

When I would roam these halls and dream a dream, of this Watcher’s Destiny

So who am I, I am The Watcher, and my name is long forgotten

I was commissioned before memories began, when as a child I roamed these walls

I played at being a member of the house, and it hears those wishes still

Bring your children, come and live within… to haunt… these… empty halls

Bring the young blood for you see we need them now

Let them play amongst the talismans hidden in this house

Will you offer up the things that we request?

Let the children haunt the attic

Let them explore the house’s depths.
