Identified with a School:	The Start of your Poem
The Nocturnals	I plunge my head into glassy water; I fill my lungs with darker-than-dark; the body sinks, the mind remains; the soul was never there.
The Bazaarines	And what, she asks, was left for me? A firkin full of golden cider; A blazing sigil 'pon the spires; A wider world than he aspires.
The Celestials	That day, I saw the Sun for my last time. And now I grieve beneath for His lost light. But soon, one day, I will repent my crime. And what remains of me will live in flight.
The Mycologenes	FATE
The Terpsichoreans	FATE
You reject all labels	Ode to a Honey-Mazed Bear O beast of claw and fur! O mirror-mad margrave! Thine honey is thine cider! Thine fez alights so pretty 'pon thine head!
