Written and performed by Luther Bedarik in 742 BC. Epic tragedy, ballad, and one person opera about Grandfather Wolf being betrayed by two of his offspring narrulves. Not too subtly allegorical to Harkon Lukas and his relationship with Akriel Lukas and Casimir Lukas. Implicates Harkon Lukas and his two children to be narrulves.[1]

The climatic aria of Luther Bedarik's the Soulless Crown, in which Grandfather Wolf (here used as an allegorical figure for Harkon Lukas) expresses his sense of betrayal and final defeat at his two back-stabbing children before facing exile. Ironically, Harkon Lukas reframed its meaning entirely to defeat Bedarik in the meistersinger contest of 743 BC[2], thereby causing Bedarik to flee from public life.[1]
