         Sit around the fire folks
        
         I have a tale to tell
        
        
         So snuggle into your blankets
        
        
         And prepare to sit a spell.
        
        
         

        
        
         It's a tale about John McGilligan
        
        
         A tall and stalwart half-elf.
        
        
         And quite the handsome man he was
        
        
         If I do say so myself.
        
        
         

        
        
         McGilligan sought adventure
        
        
         And went down Kumala way.
        
        
         It was just to be a visit
        
        
         He had no plans to stay.
        
        
         

        
        
         But deep in the rainforest
        
        
         Is the very darkest part
        
        
         Lies a thrumming, beating
        
        
         Pulsing, corrupted heart.
        
        
         

        
        
         To every warning cry
        
        
         McGilligan turned deaf ear
        
        
         And deeper he went
        
        
         With just a sturdy spear.
        
        
         

        
        
         Our elf was never good with directions,
        
        
         Believe me, just ask his wife.
        
        
         He wandered on, refusing to ask
        
        
         And this time he paid with his life.
        
        
         

        
        
         And into that vile pit he went.
        
        
         And looked into darkness true.
        
        
         A sight that seared his skin and soul,
        
        
         A mistake he lived to rue.
        
        
         

        
        
         Even now as a corrupted thing
        
        
         He just circles at Audrey's side.
        
        
         Forever lost, forever stuck
        
        
         On a direction unable to decide.
        
        
         

        
        
         (Inspired by the Corrupted Troop that's been circling -998|-823 for at least three days now)
