Lorick #130:

with merit in marshals to form square

and misinformation as warfare

my rise is electric

my policies, metric

conniving in exile: one more dare!

But first, we solve #131 - here it is one last time:

A late bloomer who ran from the heat

returned when his god thought it meet.

This adopted newborn

fought a sorcerous war;

a savior -- his end? Bittersweet.
