idk I had the urge to write nursery rhyme styled poetry that double as a warning and Shadar and the Horned One came running.
Actually I'm not sure if these count as nursery rhymes but they sure do have 'YOU GOTTA WATCH OUT' vibes
Stick to the Script and Other Stories

Free / The Executor
Free
The Horned One rests in the in-between
The Horned One dreams in your dreams
The Horned One watches you live
The Horned One reaches out and whispers
"I want to be free."
The Horned One had a name once
The Horned One had a face once
The Horned One had a duty once
The Horned One had a lover once
And he will never be free.
The Horned One's lover still walks
The Horned One's lover still talks
The Horned One's lover still watches
The Horned One's lover still envies
Those who die because they have been set free.
The Horned One will not let you sleep
The Horned One will not let you breathe
The Horned One will not let you speak
The Horned One will not let you disobey
Once its set free.
The Executor
Be careful of your gifts
Be careful of your strengths
Be careful of your weaknesses
Be careful of your hubris
For the Executor can take them away
He has no need for kindness or love
He has no need for courage or enthusiasm
He has no need for restraint or ambition
He has no need for belief or confidence
For the Executor only needs your despair
Your love and kindness can become smothering
Your courage and enthusiasm can become foolish
Your restraint and ambition can become shortcoming
Your belief and confidence can become discrediting
For the Executor will not intervene
Love and kindness leads to cold hatred
Courage and enthusiasm leads to tired cowardice
Restraint and ambition leads to excessive reluctance
Belief and confidence leads to doubtful hesitance
For the Executor wanted you out of the way
