Fall of Twilight ( Anna Elda VI )



In the veils of summer
Lived the forest folk
They were mild and good
They laughed they played
They worked hard each day
The harvest they did take
To give alms to the poor
To save and protect
But in those day's evil walked
It had many names
It created rings of doom
He tricked them easily
And gave to the fair folk
They became vile and evil
Some did escape and hid
While other travailed in pain
They consumed the lust
The fall of the elves
Someday the curse will be broke
They await the oath breaker
