Chapter Fifty-Four: The Song of the Ickabog
It's time to find out what Daisy says to the Ickabog and, more importantly, what the Ickabog says to her!
"Then Hatred spawned the race of man,
’Twas from ourselves that man began,
From Bitterness and Hate they swelled
To armies, raised to smite us.
In hundreds, Ickabogs were slain,
Our blood poured on the land like rain.
Our ancestors like trees were felled,
And still men came to fight us."
