Before I first did work, when I was just a lad,
Noish-pa my grandfather, said to me "Well now Vlad,
As a witch, you're learning fast:
To walk the forest's your next task.
See what follows you home, Vlad,
See what follows you home."

I went and walked and cast a spell, gained my own jhereg.
Always making comments, deep inside my head.
When I'm collecting business debts,
His poisoned claws make very good threats.
"Time to pay off your loan, sir,
Time to pay off your loan."

  Can I eat him, can I eat him, huh boss?
  Can I eat him please?
  I'd really really like to and he'd go so well with cheese...

  Can I eat him, can I eat him, huh boss?
  Can I eat him pretty please?
  He's causing you some trouble and, you should raise your fees.

"Problem, boss," my aide said, "Quion's been a theif.
He fled to Dzur Mountain, in some Dragonlord's fief."
I went to Morrolan's abode,
He took me to see Sethra Lavode,
The mountain is her home, yes,
The mountain is her home.

I looked at her askance, at the Dragon with a frown,
For I'd seen Quion's body, lying on the ground.
"We want to hire you." she explained.
"Why all this trouble?" I complained. She said,
"I can't leave my home, Vlad,
I can't leave my home."



I aided them, I had no choice; we ended up as friends.
I help him with security, and other odds and ends.
When Mellar robbed the whole council,
A psychic led me to the kill, he said,
"He's in Morrolan's home, Vlad,
He's in Morrolan's home."

Since he was Morrolan's guest, we had to make him flee.
We did so: to the forest but, he trapped me 'gainst a tree.
I called for help to save my life,
And now my jhereg has a wife.
And they both help collect loans, yes,
They both help collect loans.
