LUSH SISTER
Questing Beast

Verdant
peace along the stream
Along the vibrant banks
go I

Search, quest to find
o'rarest creature
starborn surefooted
fiend

Whose horns are dappled
with the tears and blood
of those foes released

I an errant,
blackguard true,
my order undone
my oath unsung

In probing darknesses
of mossy rocks unrolled,
go I, alone

Spelunking
dank humid caverns
created of roots so old

In search of her do I find
spoor, evidence of kills
unkind

Ever'yon by silver star
a winding path my way I find

I an errant,
blackguard true,
my order dashed to pieces,
my oath unfulfilled

Bones, like chimes, sound in
the vie'let night
stirred by breezes, gentle,
slight

hung with guts and twinkled
bright, like golden moons
and bitter spite

Quested Beast
of cloven hoofs so fleet
ever on the run it seems

Not yet been caught,
her gnawed-on bones
delivered sustenance
naught

Ever onward
she, too, quests,
ever-searching for her
partner

I an errant,
blackguard true,
my order undone
my oath unsung

Shall we in mortal wrestle meet
which the other of us beat

Or shall we in leaves bed sweet
our match in times
reflection see?
