A sound, faint and far off, coming from the tall grandfather clock in the library - a clock that has kept a strange sort of time, and has been waiting, it seems, a very long while.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the other side of it lies a country that was sung into being, and whose song has begun to fail. Something there has been waiting a long while too - and it is said that what has been waiting is a King.
