Survivor: Laterose 04 - Pilgrim's Progress

A/N: Omnia vincit amor. Love conquers all. This is in the form of a ballad, and is horribly exaggerated, like a legend. Rose takes Martin's body to the north shore to bury it. She thinks she is alone, and so she is, but someone has decided to follow her…

She was leaving that night

No one knew, she never told

But a friend, who kept in her sight

Followed her there, alone and cold

Her seasons were young

As were his, her friend

From happiness she was flung

Wanting her broken heart to mend

The journey was long and hard

But she battled on, carrying her love

Who slept in death, with his one lone guard

And then she was visited from heaven above

Her friend watched from a hiding place

Barely touched with despair

Watching her unhappy face

Light up with the air

Then one day she reached his northland home

And stayed to rest her paws

Closing her eyes, she thought of Brome

Abiding Noonvale's laws

And she saw a battle ahead

Pained she was by the sight of war

But though her paws were lead

She fought like she had done before

She did not rest 'til the vermin were fled

And the battlefield was no more

She laid down by her sleeping love's head

The truth was 'Omnia vincit amor'!
