Before there was time, there was Elu. Before there was earth, fire, water, air or even brehm. Before there were stories or songs, before there were men to sing them. Before even the coming of the Companions, there was Elu.

It is said that Elu is eternal; that She has always been and will always be. This of course, is nonsense. In the Dreamsong, where there is neither time nor space, such words have no meaning. The truth, to whatever extent it can be expressed by those of us who live in the Song of the Companions, is that Elu lies behind us and before us; beyond us and within us. It is Elu, the Great Dragon, who gives light to our world, life to our bodies and brehm to our songs. May the power of the Dragonsong always be honoured. May the Song of the Companions carry us forward. May the brehm of our own songs, as fleeting as they are, carry beyond our own world to echo in the Dreamsong.

And may Elu have mercy on us for the song we bring this day.
