Listen to Tuvok sing "Falor's Journey"^file info

Through storms he crossed the Voroth Sea

To reach the clouded shores of Raal

Where old T'Para offered truth.

He traveled through the windswept hills

And crossed the barren Fire Plains

To find the silent monks of Kir.

Still unfulfilled, he journeyed home

Told stories of the lessons learned

And gained true wisdom by the giving.
