It's a sad fact that
sometimes the need to win brings
unsporting conduct.

Luckily we have
a champion watching from
the ceiling for this.

If you seek to break
the Dark Covenant, beware!
Ceiling Jac sees all.

Upholder of laws,
Determining right from wrong,
Keeper of the peace.

Whether big or small,
Investigating cases,
Making decisions.

The Right and Left hand,
With a ceiling Jac watching,
Protecting the fun.

Twice been our leader
With years of experience
Impartial and wise

His word is the law
You'd best not inflict his wrath
The Mark you will bear

Justice is his life

He's Jac Cotelin
