Arrowhead Boy

The arrowhead boy stands beneath the Autumn Moon

His childish smile darkened, his face pale and still

His eyes glowing blue with the shadows of the night

And his hands gripping on the staff that holds him there

The young girl leans against the cliff

Her face is damp, her spirits drenched

The ocean-blue eyes look towards the west

Towards the west of the arrowhead boy.

Water, Air, Earth, Fire

The elements he shall conspire

Seem lost within his grasp, his touch,

And so they are, for the arrowhead boy

His face is cold, his heart frozen

As he stands under the twilight moon

And takes his fate without a word

For the light of the world should not perish so soon.

As the girl watches the clouds pass o'er the moon

She sees a dark figure, looming over the mountain

A boy, his shadow lost in the earth

And air uniting him with the world

She sees the spirits of the undead land,

The colors of the wind bursting into life

As the arrowhead boy settles down to the ground

The air bursting into flame, water, and life.

The minutes pass, and days go by

But the arrowhead boy still stands, unwearied under the sun

The powers he possess are too great for mankind

And so he must wait, for a sign to arrive

So he may fulfill his destiny one day

To live a life of hope and trust

To conquer his enemies, to ally his friends

And unite the four nations and end the hate.

And so the girl wanders back to her village one day

Telling stories about him, yet hoping he would arrive to the world, one day

And until then, her eyes still that misty blue,

Face the west, to the arrowhead boy.
