A little poem thing about various puffin-Vahki, you see. To keep sharp and all that.
A is for Amy, her voice a great drawl,
B is for Beatrice, her tattoos and all.
C is for Coraline, more curious than wise,
D is for Desdemona, the throne in her eyes.
E is for Eleanora, a great drain on mood,
F is for Freya, the source of the feud.
G is for Guinevere, her pathways askew,
H is for Hecate, whose mercies are few.
I is for Imogen, destructor of polls,
J is for Juliana, far too fond of souls.
K is for Karenina, quickly lead astray,
L is for Ligiea, who pulls folks away.
M is for Melissa, a boss to many,
N is for Nigella, queen of the sav'ry.
O is for Ophelia, maddened by love,
P is for Philomela, sonics of a dove.
Q is for Quyen, her wings great and broad,
R is for Rhiannon, her magic mere fraud.
S is for Sara, whose mind's flown the coop,
T is for Tabitha, true witch of the group.
U is for Umeko, too sweet for the fight,
V is for Victoria, amateur of flight.
W is for Wendy, the Vahki of style,
X is for Xixitho, with weapons stockpile.
Y is for Yaelia, keeper of the Hoto,
And Z is for Zinia, who drank too much Proto.
Just something I've been working on these past few... couple of weeks. I actually did one as the intro for a larger, Vahki-based story a couple of years ago, but that kinda went nowhere. A chunk of the names are the same, and the last two lines are identical to the original. That had to be the same.
