Scribbled into Ailnes diary is what is purported to be one of the last drinking song in Nidala, shortly before both drinking and song were outlawed:
When the last rider comes home from battle he wrought we all raise our glass, one final time!
When the last rider comes home from battle he fought, we all raise our glass, one final time!
For we all know that the battle is lost and so we drink, one final time!
For we know what comes when the rider has passed and so we drink, one final time!
The last rider brings the news, of what is known, one final time.
That each song will be sung only one final time!
And so we sit here, deep in the night, lifting our glass, one final time!
