Lore:Dance the Square (journal)
From Aveum Wiki
Oh Nelly-oh, Oh Nelly-oo
What a stompin' good time ee-oh
Oh Nelly-oh, Oh Nelly-oo
What a stompin' good time ago
We danced the square and we danced the knots
and we danced those ships against the rocks
And the black hearts turned and fled
away
They rue the day
Awaaaaaaaay!
Historical Note: "Dance the Square" is an old sea shanty from K'Ley. In the end of the shanty, everyone traditionally stomps their feet chaotically. In some performances, the dancers crush wooden model ships beneath their feet. The shanty is an ode to a battle in which four Colossals square danced in the waves among a fleet of fragile wooden enemy galleons, destroying them all. The officers in charge were only verbally reprehended.
