Chapter 159: A Poster of Warning

A poster was found near the Border Dome, stuck to a tree:

WARNING

ALL OF YOU BEWARE

A STRING OF MISFORTUNE AWAITS

YOU WHO CANNOT FORETELL

THEM WHO MUSTN'T READ

FOR THE TIMES ARE PERILOUS

AND DANGER IS AHEAD

YOU MUST NOT HEED 

WHAT OTHERS CANNOT SPEAK

STOP THE BLEED

FOR THE RISK LIES AHEAD

THIS TOO SHALL FALL

INTO THE DARKNESS' CLAWS

AND AFTER A WHILE

POOR SOULS REVILE

BUT TOO LATE, IT REALLY WAS

KEEP OUT!

ALL OF YOU

WHO ARE KNOCKED OUT

WITH DESIRES, NO DOUBT

LIKE EATING A JUICY FISH TROUT

BUT WE MUST SEE

WHAT LIES BEHIND THIS TREE

LIKE DRINKING STRONG TEA

THAT YOU HAVE TO AGREE

DO NOT CROSS

THIS BORDER DOME

SINCERELY ARMED AND DANGEROUS

WE GIVE YOU ENOUGH CAUSE

CONTROL WHAT YOU MUST

FORGET WHAT YOU CANNOT

THEN PEACEFULLY SETTLE

BUT SUPPRESS, IF ANY BETTER

GIVE US A CLUE

TO NEVER GIVE A THING OR TWO

WHAT MYSTERY YOU WANT

IS NOTHING BUT A TRAP
