On Wings of the Night - the Dragon of Haute-Savoire
A terrible spell cast darkness across the land
So the dragon flew on wings of the night
This magical spell folks could not understand
Could the dragon make everything right?
The Knight of the kingdom sat high on his back
But there was no moon to act as their guide
Together they traveled to plan their attack
Knight of Haute-Savoire was ready for the ride
They swooped high and low over mountains and lakes
Fiery flames streamed from the dragon’s huge head
There was no time too lose, there could be no mistakes
They must act fast as the villager’s slept in their bed
Dragon’s night vision was good with his luminous eyes
He burnt down the wizard’s tower with his fiery breath
Their silent attack was a complete surprise
And it led to the magician’s swift death
In the new light of dawn the villager’s woke
To a world which was no longer in the dark
The magician’s tower was belching black smoke
They crowned the Knight of Haute-savoire their monarch!
