'''''Wyrn the King''''' is an ancient three-thousand line poem written on [[Sel]].{{book ref|Elantris|43}}
The poem is thought to be the oldest known work of literature on Sel, written before the holy book of [[Shu-Keseg]], the ''[[Do-Kando]]''. It is centered around the original [[Wyrn]], the founder of [[Fjorden]].{{book ref|Elantris|43}}{{
After [[Wulfden the First]] converted to [[Shu-Dereth]],{{
[[Sarene]] discovers an unaltered version of the ancient poem in a copy of the book ''[[Seor]]'s Encyclopedia of Political Myths'' in [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]]. The book disproves much of the rhetoric and propaganda of the Derethi church and uses the alteration of the poem as an example. The original poem makes no references to Shu-Dereth and depicts Jaddeth as a minor god associated with the rocks below the ground. Sarene remarks that Fjorden's priesthood would be greatly embarrassed if knowledge of their tampering became known.{{book ref|Elantris|43}}
