There sits a painting in the gallery of the Palace.  Vibrant colors explode from its surface, and without a doubt, it is the painting of the year.  No one knows who the artist is, and no one wants to.  For what enthralls all is the mystery; it was sent to the Palace tied in brown wrapping paper, and a single note stated: ”To be placed where you see fit.  Called ‘Look’.”

 

The picture itself is of a battle, that is clear.  But which is it?  Is it the battle of Port Legann, or perhaps the standoff at Pirate’s Swoop, or may it be a simple Scanran skirmish? 

 

But be it certain: The sun was a flower, the evening, crescent moons, the arrows were rain, and the swords were lightning flashes.
