The statue above depicts Locke, head of the palace guard.

Dark stormy mysterious melancholy rock
Out of the deep, longing from underneath
Cold wet subconscious silhouette
Shadow of archetypal dreams
Watchful yearning symbolic eyes
Haunt every caliginous breath of the tides
Surging crashing ocean storm waves
The rock of fortitude remains
Eerie atavistic song haunting the shore
A mighty, heralding crest
Glittering upon a foreboding rock
Lurking, waiting, summoning
A pale chimerical clinging statuette
Half-woman, half-fish, Empress of the Sea

This statue shows a mermaid playing a small harp.

Carved rock statues are common in Lyraka.

What will arrive upon the edge of the world
Surveyed by the star that rises and sets
Ships with their sails unfurled
Fishermen detangling their nets
The sun a radiant glimpse of hope
From tomorrow's treasure I cannot borrow
Impossible to glean through a telescope
Prithee not an eternity of sorrow
An anchor glitters within the star of the sea
A permanant fixture that will not fail
And faith a tempest within me
Stronger than a mighty gale
Behold! My worries are transformed
Like a mermaid wriggling out of her tail
