The Mereland Chronicles


Pulled from Death – poem from The Mereland Chronicles: The Crier

Silhouette of a woman running at sunset on a hillside with the poem “Pulled from Death” overlaid; Lake District tones, moody golden light.

Pulled from Death — a short poem from The Mereland Chronicles: The Crier, a dark historical fantasy set in England’s Lake District and inspired by the Claife Crier legend.
Poem text:

Pulled from death, a whisper on the tide…
Bound by duty, yet shackled by time.
The rightful has returned,
to restore what was taken.
And the untamed will rise,
unbound and unshaken.

This visual poem reflects the mood of the novel — mystery, desire, and foreshadowing for the series to come. Discover more about the book, trailers, and behind-the-scenes notes on my website: pjscribbans.co.uk.
