Summary:
Jeyid rode with a group of friends on a lengthy journey to slay multiple criminals, Shadowspawn, and even the renowned Fade Maeltor. Trying to curry favor with the Gleemen Council, Jeyid penned a series of humorous poems about all of his group members during the trip. The group returns successfully to Fal Dara, where Jeyid leads a brief show to share what he has composed.

Point of view: Jeyid
Main character: Jeyid
Attendees: Carter, Chloro, Antonio, Kai, Gorrik, Kenob
