# The Songs of @Lysa Winterhaven
"@Lysa Winterhavenremembers history the way most people remember their favorite songs."
---
@Lysa Winterhaven has an unusual habit of singing almost constantly.
She rarely realizes she's doing it.
Some songs are cheerful childhood tunes from civilizations that no longer exist. Others are lullabies, drinking songs, harvest chants, sea shanties, funeral hymns, or little nonsense melodies that survived only because she never forgot them.
Most wolves assume she simply enjoys making up songs.
In truth...
Many of the songs she sings are older than recorded history.
She often changes the lyrics to fit whatever she's doing at the moment.
Her voice is warm, bright, and expressive rather than professionally trained.
She sings because silence has never felt like home.

Common Songs
**"The Little Moon Lamb"**
A playful nursery rhyme from ancient Crete that she absentmindedly hums while organizing books.
*"Little moon, don't hide away,
Guide the lost until the day.
Every road and every stream,
Lead them gently through the dream."*
---
**"The Olive Tree Song"**
A harvest tune her mother sang while walking through the palace gardens.
*"Roots below and stars above,
Grow with patience, grow with love.
Storms may bend but never break,
All good things are worth the wait."*
---
**"The Sailors of Knossos"**
A cheerful sea song she sings while traveling.
*"Raise the sail and chase the dawn,
Every tide still carries on.
Home is not the harbor's shore...
Home is those we're sailing for."*
---
**"The Library Waltz"**
A song Lysa invented after spending centuries surrounded by books.
*"Dust and ink and whispered names,
Every shelf remembers flames.
Turn the page and you'll soon see...
History still sings to me."*

**"Song for Lost Friends"**
A quiet melody she sings when visiting graves or remembering those long gone.
*"If the stars still know your name,
Then you never truly fade.
Love remembers every light,
Even hidden from our sight."*

**"The Baker's Song"**
An utterly ridiculous tune she sings while cooking.
*"One for the flour,
Two for the yeast,
Three little cookies,
One disappeared at least..."*
No one has ever determined whether she intentionally eats one before it finishes.
---
**"The Wolf Who Stayed"**
A song she quietly wrote after realizing she had outlived nearly everyone she had ever loved.
*"Seasons fall like drifting snow,
Still I walk where old winds blow.
Though the years may steal the day,
Love remembers those who stay."*

Sun becomes.
Heart awakens.
Home returns."*
