There once was a lady
Deep in the arms of rest
She sought something there
Not something easily grasped like a hilt
Nor something easily recognized as valuable like a gem
But if not held as priceless
It could be lost

Long ago during the times of myth and lore
When stories walked abound
A fair lady came to the waters mystical
With a quest searching

Where can she find that which is needed most
In order to save her kind?
It had been revealed to her that she must go
And speak with Wildwood
For he's an old hermit, both gentle and wise
And He knows deep secrets within

He spoke of a time of rest and peace
Found at the water's edge
"For if we close our eyes and rest
It's powerful enough to save the land
From the dragon's hand"

So she searched among the shore
But as the time grew late she became sad
She could hear Wildwood's final word
"Listen to the waves crashing
For only when you do will it be given to you
Lay down all your cares by the shore
Place them there. Do not take them up again
Surrender all your thoughts to the waves"

In her last efforts she heard them
Though she was lost in sand and stone
Their call was true and as she listened to
Her path became quite clear
For as the waves crashed a door
Appeared opening the way for peaceful rest
She walked and found what Wildwood said

Not only did the waves wash away
All worry and fear, she was given the strength to stand
Against the dragon who had
Raged across the land, with fierce roars and fiery breath

This fair lady armed with time
Of peaceful rest called down that raging dragon from the sky
With a thunder's crash it landed before her
With an angry blast it stomped around

Then she reached out her hand
And placed it on the dragon's head, its eyes opened wide
A tear fell from its eyes as peace flowed through into
His form from her hand
It looked at her smile
And was released from anger to its core

The dragon found rest upon that shore
