(word-help below)
Yrkuthor, red with wrath, drives his Wain about the Lands, always seeking to thrack Frostfire Ettins.
His Wain is drawn by his doughty Draginn. And in the Wain behind him sits the Drangstan of ozly weald, by which Yrkuthor can hurl his whitelight Samen-bolts to plock into Ittin-brawn, to burn and so thaw the frore Life-nennings, which Ittins draw off the Verden to drive their Searuvel. And so the Ittins must drop their grip, and the Nennings are freed to flow back into the Verden, to find their thwarly byzenings, so that Life may thrive.
And Yrkuthor smiles blithe.
