Our Lexi Game Story thus far!

Once upon a time long ago...
lived the most charming maiden in the...
strange yet very nice land of....
snowy days and hot balmy nights...
named Lexifortuna. It was a fine place...
like some fairy tale or dream world...
with a rainbow bridge above the bluest...
waters of the heart shaped lake...
Brightly plumed exotic birds flew in the azure sky...
palms and ferns swayed gently as if waltzing to birdsong ..
Oh, How the maiden loved her island of beauty and...
the lazy times walking along the beach....
Then one day she spied something sparkling in the sand...
She wanted to get a closer view of it. She knelt down...
"What are you?" she said aloud with no one around to hear.
"Listen close with your heart and mind" she heard a
voice say in a whisper. She could not be sure
Its sound was whispery almost as if a child's soft voice,
Yet it was also in some ways, very strangely old and wise...
yet mystical. Lexifortuna was hopeful to learn more about this
She gently placed it in her bodice close to her heart...
It felt warm and vibrated gently with a life force...
so in tune to Maiden Lexifortuna's heart and soul,
Her past lives and long lost lovers' images flowed into her mind...

The story thus far!

quote:
ONCE UPON A TIME LONG AGO....
BELOW THE SURFACE OF A MURKY LAKE...
LIVED A SOFT VOICED SULTRY WATER SPRITE...
WHO LOVED TO GAZE UPON ONE STAR

THEN MAKING A WISH FOR TRUE LOVE
SHE LEAPT TOWARDS THE SKY IN JOY
WHILST REACHING OUT TO TOUCH THE ONE SILVERY...
CLOUD ABOVE.
A SHARP NOISE BROKE INTO HER DREAMS.
IT WAS THE THUNDER GOD THOR, SON OF ODIN,
WHO...
WAS JEALOUS SHE COULD THINK OF ANOTHER
THE THUNDER BOLTS HE THREW FLASHED IN THE NIGHT SKY
SHE QUICKLY DOVE BACK INTO THE DEPTHS OF THE LAKE
THE WILD WINDS BLEW ABOVE THE LAKE, THE WAVES CRASHED...
AND YET THOR'S HEART WOULD NOT CALM ITSELF.
AS THE RAGE OF ANGRY THOR SHAKED THE EARTH
WHILST SHE HID, TREMBLING IN HER WATERY CAVE
IN THE FOREST, THE JOINER'S SON WAS IN AWE.
HE SAT BY AN OAKEN FRAMED PORTAL HIS FATHER MADE
"WHY ARE THE STORM WINDS SO WILD?" HE ASKED HIMSELF.
HE LEFT HIS HUT AND WENT OUT INTO THE STORM
AS HE WALKED, STRONG VIOLENT WINDS TORE AT HIS CAPE
THUNDERCLAPS RANG IN HIS EARS. BUT HE FELT NO FEAR.
HE FELT HIMSELF BEING DRAWN DREAMILY TOWARDS THE DARK LAKE
LURED BY THE ECHO OF A DULCET SONG

THEN HE SAW HER! HER SOFT SILKEN HAIR, HER SULTRY HYPNOTIC GAZE...
THE BEAUTY OF HER SOUL SHONE OUT LIKE A BEACON
HER SONG DELIGHTS HIM, IN A DREAMING TRANCE HE WADES INTO THE WATER..
WOULD HE DARE TO FIND HER
THIS WOMAN OF LIGHT, OF SOUL, OF HEART
A BEING SO VERY MUCH LIKE HIS OWN
OR WOULD HE FAIL TO REACH HER?
