"Too often days swiftly pass /
Weeping in the evening grass /
There just is not enough time /
Forthings you dreamt you'd do /
The hours still drift by.
"Too many years, too high a cost /
Too many lessons earned but lost /
And still you complain all the time /
Cursing the days before you /
Lamentng the days gone by.
"And finally laying in your bed /
Staring skyward, nearly dead /
It all floods back one last time, /
The chances that you left behind /
But alas there's little left to do /
... but cry."

Introducing
Shrines to Sudul
along the Run Suluth are a common sight. The small stone structures are
typically built from carved river-stone, constructed into small round
buildings with conical or domed roofs. The shrines are rarely larger than
a family hut and often have little space other than is necessary for two
people to find shelter from the rain.
Within each shrine is a either a small altar
or candle niches where the wonders of Sudul may be reflected upon. Some
believe the shrines provide shelter against the Dreaming Winds, while
others claim that Dreamers who come to the shrines while the winds are
blowing receive more coherent instruction from the god's minions.
Local natives upkeep the riverside shrines,
but more exist in the deeper jungles that are forgotten and in ruins.
Those shrines inside the Veil are often in much better repair than those
outside the misty barrier.
