QUEST FOR THE NORTHERN CROWN (ACROSS THE BLACK SEA)
The ship glides through the inky black sea
Nothing can be seen beneath the surface
Heading to wherever the Northern Crown could be
Everyone on the ship is quiet and nervous
They're going to a direction no one has came back from
They all stand tall and brave
As no birds fly in the afternoon sun
The only sounds were the smacking of the waves
As they splashed against the hull
The heroes were tight lipped but still they were brave
Sailing on through the afternoon that was dull
Suddenly, a roar came from the side of the ship
A leviathan emerged from the water
Everyone aboard was thrown about with the hit
All were fearful for their slaughter
Dorian bravely went up to the bow
Stone of Galderissia in hand
He knew its use would be needed now
As his arms slowly began to expand
Arcs of blue lightning emerged in its wake
Hitting the leviathan as it let out a scream
It fell back into the sea as the air smelled baked
The whole experience felt so serene
Just when they thought that it was all done
The leviathan came back up to attack
Alaya took out her bow where she was from
And fired three arrows just like that
The arrows sank into the leviathan's skin
And right into its heart
It went right back within
The water that was so dark
The strange silence was back once again
As they sail forward, they see a weird light
Was this the Northern Crown and have they neared the end?
Questions remain as they sail into the beginning of night.
