The Dark Prophecy

This may not be actual prophecy. See Verin's commentary (TGH: 7, ?, Blood Calls Blood, 90). Some may be prophetic, and others may just be Shadow propaganda. It is a source of information, though, so here it is.

	  Daughter of the Night, she walks again.(YES)
	  The ancient war, she yet fights.(YES)
	  Her new lover she seeks, who shall serve her(DOUBTFUL) and
			 die(NOT YET), yet serve still.
	  Who shall stand against her coming?
	  The Shining Walls shall kneel.(NO, not yet)
	  Blood feeds blood.
	  Blood calls blood.
	  Blood is, and blood was, and blood shall ever be.

	  The man who channels stands alone.
	  He gives his friends for sacrifice.
	  Two roads before him, one to death beyond dying, one to life eternal.
	  Which will he choose?  Which will he choose?
	  What hand shelters?  What hand slays?

	  Luc came to the Mountains of Dhoom.
	  Isam waited in the high passes.
	  The hunt is now begun. The Shadow's hounds now course, and kill.
	  One did live, and one did die, but both still are.
	  The Time of Change has come.(YES TO ALL)

	  The Watchers wait on Toman Head.
	  The seed of the Hammer burns the ancient tree.(YES: Tree is symbol
												of  Tarabon)
	  Death shall sow, and summer burn(YES: the current draught), before 
			 the Great Lord comes.
	  Death shall reap, and bodies fail (will there be a plague?), before 
			 the Great Lord comes.
	  Again the seed slays ancient wrong, before the Great Lord comes.
	  Now the Great Lord comes.(YES)

Another possible Dark Prophecy: "It is written that when he (the DO) awakes, the new Dreadlords will be there to praise him." (TEOTW 33, Four Kings in Shadow, p434)
