Valdemar
The Mad Poet of the Prinya

Valdemar “The Hermit” of Ciniz had a rather tragic life. The last half of his life he spend in De Prinya, a rough valley in the White Mountains, close to Ciniz. Here, he had housed in a cabin that his father had once build for hunting Kamzyg, an animal that is very often seen in De Prinya. The cabin, no more than a shed with the comfort of a prison cell, contained only one room, where it is very cold in the early mountain winter. The view from the one room of the cabin is fantastic, if not snowed in.
On this isolated spot, hidden from the world, Valdemar tried to forget his life. He plunged into poetry, and wrote many poems. He was a master of the Common Trade Language, and wrote his poetry in this language. The very grammatic structure of the language, combined with the poetic images Valdemar used, gave the poems the flair of a vision.
Some say, the poems are visions, predictions even. They studied the poetry and found out Valdemar had forseen some historic events in Daleth. Many riddles are still left, some are solved, and up to this day, the visions seem to be accurate.
