Once, a long, long time ago, there were two eggs

One red, one black.

They were cared for,

And cooed to by a great emerald beast

With claws like iron

And teeth like diamond

Then, one day, they hatched.

Out emerged two dragons;

One red, one black.

Not long after, an Emerald Wizard came

He slew the great emerald dragon,

The red fleeing at the first fallen scale.

However, the black remained asleep.

At this the Wizard found her,

Nestled in a large nest,

And heard her soft sigh.

His heart strings were pulled

And with a wave of his staff,

The black dragon

Became a human.
