THE SWORD OF NYMPH

At the gates of a New Dawn

Stands a woman strong and tall

A new world order takes the stand

As Nymphs now rule the land

~~~ 

From galaxies distant they did come

To rescue this fading star

These super beings tried to restore

A troubled earth now in their hands

~~~ 

Legend states that humans did stray

And caused a stir in Nymphania

Confusion led to many traits

Of humans taking different shapes

 ~~~

An ‘Original’ cast out from time

Rinoa was this young girl’s name

A Nymph of Royalty courageous and true

Cast his eye upon this beauty new

 ~~~

She shielded him with all her light

He gave her title and great honour

For her life she’d surely give

To save this guardian of the stars

 ~~~

His ice cold heart found its shining star

In Rinoa’s eyes he saw his dawn

Love before never conquered him

His purpose solely was to rule

 ~~~

In these troubled times he saw

A people who had lost their way

So he strived to right the wrongs

These humans had no purpose for

 ~~~

When Rinoa touched his soul

He put aside his warrior sword

And for an intimate moment in space

Loved this ‘Original’ cast out in time

 ~~~

Their union created a breed unknown

Her skin so dazzling white it seemed

She shone like diamonds in the sun

Cascading hair of different colours

 ~~~

They called her ‘Ashe’ this unusual child

For she was born beneath the Rowan Tree

The humans called the Mountain Ash

Conceived in love and born in the wild

 ~~~

A species unique to all of mankind

She took up the Royal Sword of Nymph

Her father had long since laid to rest

And fought for the right for all to exist

 ~~~

No longer could humans find a reason

Not to live in peace and harmony

For all species had a right to co-exist

Sharing the fruits and bounties of this earth
