Tenets of Adalci

The Vicar comes to town today,
Came the shouting from the crier,
He'll be passing judgement on us all,
and preaching to the choir.
He's good and right, (did I say good?)
He'll teach us how to live,
Just follow the words he passes out,
And your sins he will forgive.

— Excerpt from "The Vicar"
Unknown follower of Kolero
