The Ties That Bind - The Story of Lilium

A truley amazing story.

Lilium... She's a special girl. Try to have that in mind before you judge her.
The Shadow and the Brother... There's a reason why he wanted her brother the way he was.

 

 

Little doll ,

Who carries the name of the most beautiful flower...

Could you please ,

Bring me something

From your parents tower?

 

Of course , dear Shadow.

What is it that you so humbly ask to endow?

 

 

Walk back to your castle ,

Dear child and make it your families tomb...

For what I really desire lies within your mothers womb.

For I once heard of a man ,

Who shall become like no other...

Could you please bring me your still unborn brother?

 

"The Shadow bowed in gratitude , in completing her task."

Would you like anything in return , might I ask? 

 

Please , I hope you dont get me wrong...

For I would love to play , laugh and dance all night long.

But no matter what I want , I would find a friend most relevant.

 

Im sorry ,

Little flower.

Friends I can not give.

For it is sadly beyond my power...

 

Then I would like my brother back ,

For this little deal of ours has just turned awfully sour.

What good are you if you make me weep?

Please have my brother returned to the gates of my keep.

 

Niether your brother can I give you.

What you gave up is given.

I merely strive for a way to make even.

Seeing my offer is merely out of kindness ,

This child will never know the enbrace of your fortress.

 

 

Then I would wish for a way to have you undone , kind shadow.

I want you mauled and buried by the darkest and most blighted meadow.

 

 

Fair enough , Little flower.

Without feelings of vain or rue ,

I shall grant you your one wish come true.

Without honor ,

Without grace ,

You shall travel to the darkest place.

Untouched by the vilest of gloom ,

Your skin will always run paler than our brightest moon.

Travel the road of which I pointed , and be forever gone.

For sure , one day you shall have me undone.

 

Thank you kindly , Shadow , of whom I do not know.

"Lilium bows in gratitude."
