'It started with a fire'

Prologue

A bell is heard throughout the halls

Bouncing off those retched walls

Every day, like this, he calls

But never demons stall

As calm as a child, he beckon thee

Though the garden, through the trees

So he may bow down on his knees

But through one eye he sees

He asks of him one thing he must

Go through with it, without disgust

Such an action must not discuss

Not for his blood he lust

Then one by one, across the ground

Dragging rings not to be found

He carries love around and round

He sleeps not safe and sound

But he had sadly left awoken

And let him out the room he'd locked in

The proof of this must not be spoken

The contract seal been broken
