Drivin' the lord o' Morphie's stones!
The lord o' Morphie will never thrive
As long as the kelpie is alive!
Long Lankin doesn't much like humans, for she was that kelpie. His revenge is the song that shares her name. Be careful of him, pretty mortals.
Lankin has walked Scottish moors and visited Lancre on Discworld and made shady deals in the markets of London Below. Wherever the Merry Gentry dwell she can be found, laughing and dancing and murdering babies. He may kill you for revenge's sake or because she thinks you need mercy killing. Or he may never notice you at all--pray she doesn't.
