Through razor's edge of knowledge bought
Of timeless time congealed
With cold deceit the master culled
His destiny long concealed
To piercing realm of shadows fell
In terror burden reaps
With lover's spark ignites the dark
A pawn as the legend weeps
Surrendered gate the golden word
To portent's deathly creed
Awakening the tide of grief
And forfeiting soul to bleed.

This portent appears at the start of Part 4 of Awakening, and it foretells the ending of the first book in the TotKW saga. Its three stanzas mirror the three chapters of Part 4, and it deals with the deathly betrayals surrounding the ultimate unbinding of A'lara City. Can you guess what destiny the master culled?
