Elan World 3 - The Revelation

"Elana was the name you called, is this my former name,

or perhaps a new one given me whence to this world I came?"

"Princess Elana is your name, the prophecy was clear,

a scribe with some unknown intent changed it late last year."

"So who are you, O fairest one, please tell me your sweet name

and do I have a purpose here or is this just a game?"

"My dearest child, you know me not? Please harken to my voice.

I've risen from among the dead to offer you a choice.

I am the one who gave you life, who brought your soul to birth,

your dear departed mother who once banished you to earth.

With sorrow I regret that deed, I wish to make amends,

I'm hoping you've forgiven me and that we can be friends."

"I must confess I'm at a loss, these things I can't recall,

my mind is numb, I feel confused, like rain that never falls.

I trust in you and sense your love, please tell me what to do.

It appears that I belong here, yet everything feels new."

Just then the wind begins to blow and both of us take flight.

She takes the lead and heads straight north with wings that shine bright white.

The warmth slowly turns to chill as the light gives way to gloom.

I feel a sudden sense of dread, a foreboding sense of doom.

Behold! A castle made of ice, it glitters, though no sun.

We land right on the castle grounds then to the rear we run.

"Quiet now," she whispers low, as the wind lifts us on high,

"A window's open up above, our entrance in is nigh.

Before we do this princess child there's something you should know,

I died when you were only three at the hands of a bitter foe.

Before I passed I sent you on to save you from her wiles,

sent you down to planet earth though you were just a child.

Your father's former, errant queen is now the one we seek,

her callous heart threatens the peace, leaving our future bleak"

As tears stream down my face she smiles, then wipes them with her glove.

A single ray of golden sun breaks through from up above.

My memory is clearing now like shards of light through dark.

We both get all our courage up, now ready to embark!
