 +====== The Gatekeeper's Creed - Drabble - By Yangos ======
  
 +There is a small chapel-like building near the Aachen University, built of grey marble and ironwood, with a peaked roof that never seems to catch any snow, even in the coldest of winters. There are gothic, arced windows of dark, lead-lined glass that make it impossible to look inside and a row of small buttresses along each side. There are no symbols of faith or worship, beside a small statue of the Quattro Coronati in a discreet alcove and no student-scribbled graffiti, dirt or climbing ivy mars the smooth walls.
 +
 +The door is heavy, made of English oak and on its arched frame, an inscription in small polished bronze letters reads:
 +
 +//**NEITHER RAIN, NOR SNOW, NOR GLOOM OF NIGHT, NOR STARLIGHT IRON, NOR THE ENDLESS ROAD CAN STAY THESE GATEKEEPERS FROM OPENING THE PATH**//
 +
 +In a small niche, carved in the right-hand doorpost, a few additions to this noble sentiment have been made:
 +
 +//__Don't ask us about:__//\\
 +//huge big green things with teeth//\\
 +//any sort of dragon//\\
 +//<del>falling ships</del>//\\
 +//the pox//\\
 +//earrings//\\
 +//thrown rocks//\\
 +//the time//\\
 +//Chirp//
 +
 +And a small brass plaque, bearing the crest of the Gatekeepers and nailed at eye-height on the door itself reads:
 +
 +//**PUSH TO OPEN**//
