Before the years the Trollocs raged,
Before the Dark One's wrath was caged,
There was an alliance to nations true
Who's numbers are unknown, but are more than two.

King Remedan the Goldentongued was known from near to far,
He signed his name on the treaty, the king of Aelgar.
His home was made in Ancohima, don't you know,
Where I hear they had a lovely snow.

King Coerid Nosar was next in tellin',
Direct from the capitals of Jennshain and Al'cair'rahienallen!
He was known for his flag, the dark red wren,
Which flew oh so proud of his home, Almoren.

Queen Mabriam en Shareed, now she was thinkin',
For the country of Aramaelle she was inkin'.
She was the one that pulled 'em in, tooth and nail,
Into the capital, Mafal Dadarenell.

Aridhol of Aridhol was next in line,
Signed on by Queen Torghin, all in good time.
Doreille Torghin was her name, long and hard to say,
Which might be why her country's known as something else today.

King Ladoman, he came up next,
His country, it was slightly vexed.
Its capital was called Shaemal,
Yet another place that has long since fell.

Queen Egoridin and King Temanin come up after,
First Lord Cristal was a fan of laughter.
Their homes were Deranbar of Karamide, Eharon of Londaren Cor,
And Essenia's capitol of Aren Mador.

Queen Sorelle of Manetheren also kept is simple,
Her capital kept the same name, but was larger than a dimple.
King Eawynd signed in for Safer,
But couldn't choose between the names of Iman and Katar.

So those are the countries,
That signed the Compact new,
Which is the only reason that we know today
That they numbered more than two.
