One quiet night the lady traveled out beyond the monastery

Her quest was one of urgency and human preservation

She traveled with companions to reach the ruined city

Where lay the means to save her kind, a path to their salvation

When there they searched for evidence of where the Queen once slept

And came upon a gateway, which was tightly closed and barred

A stark inscription warned them of the risk of their next step

But choices were no more; they had already come too far
