Dudley's dungeon

) a weapon (a silver
sabreFlashed all their sabres bare,
Flashed as they turned in air,
Sab'ring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wondered:
Plunged in the battery smoke,
Right through the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reeled from the sabre-stroke
Shattered and sundered.
Then they rode back, but not--
Not the six hundred.

GrayswandirWhy had I been wearing Grayswandir?  Would another weapon have
affected a Logrus-ghost as strongly?  Had it really been my
father, then, who had brought me here?  And had he felt I might
need the extra edge his weapon could provide?  I wanted to
think so, to believe that he had been more than a Pattern-ghost.

You hear a doorThrough me you pass into the city of woe:
Through me you pass into eternal pain:
Through me among the people lost for aye.
Justice the founder of my fabric mov'd:
To rear me was the task of power divine,
Supremest wisdom, and primeval love.
Before me things create were none, save things
Eternal, and eternal I endure.
All hope abandon ye who enter here.

@ a humanThese strange creatures live mostly on the surface of the
earth, gathering together in societies of various forms, but
occasionally a stray will descend into the depths and commit
mayhem among the dungeon residents who, naturally, often
resent the intrusion of such beasts.  They are capable of
using weapons and magic, and it is even rumored that the
Wizard of Yendor is a member of this species.
