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?

It was a moons-shadowed false dusk, and the play of the system star's light upon the oceanbay was twilit with the far eastern shore's city glitter. With the change in ambient light, the salt-kissed bora rustled the palm fronds and perfumed the cool air with sweet synthetic scents from half-dissolved resins' interaction with salt water. It was a beautiful scene, storybook in everyway.
