Though vast and wide the world was
with heart of yearning abuzz
Mendelore's fate was not known
So many lives he was shown
Nothing he saw sparked his soul
And soon his heart was of coal
"I've no purpose," he despaired
Thus he fell to disrepair
'Til one day Fate had a thought
"A destiny he has sought
Yet still he has found one not
Hence one for him I shall wrought"
Two gifts Fate gave Mendelore
Cruelty he'd not known before
And passion to make a change
Yet his desires seemed strange:
"I seek to improve myself
By bettering the world's health;
Ending the cruelty I've seen
'Til then, my efforts won't ween"
