The Quest for the Holy Veil


There once was a man named Sir Anval the Great, King Art was one he did hate, Anval stole from the rich and gave to the poor, Until Queen Gwendolyn could take it no more,

King Art decided to devise a plan, (5) To Satisfy Queen Gwendolyn's demand, He called upon the knight Derail, To go on a quest for the holy veil,

There he would take Anval the great, And leave him alone to suffer his fate, (10) Perlin the Wizard discovered the plan, And decided to lend a helping hand,

He called upon Anval to tell him the news, That the king planned to kill him and he would lose, Without Perlins help he would suffer most great, (15) So they devised a plan to help Anval escape,

He would go on the quest and the veil he would find, He would deliver it to the king alone but alive, Derail would suffer Anval's fate, And Anval would live healthy and great, (20)

Upon this trip accompanied Lord Jermaine, He was looking forward to witnessing this game, And so the quest for the holy veil took place, As Perlin waited for Anval to win the race,

Two months later King Art received news, (25) That the holy veil had been found by Bartholomew, Just a mere boy who traveled along, Only thing he was skilled in was song,

Perlin visited the boy and was given the veil, He Gave it to Anval who then ditched Derail, (30) The Queen was shocked when Anval returned alive, Anval was supposed to have died,

The King realized that magic was involved, And could not touch Anval til the mystery was solved, He discovered that Perlin was helping him out, (35) He screamed and yelled at Perlin he did shout,

But Anval was protected and had completed the test, He had found the veil and completed the quest, Sadly King Art told the Queen that he, Could not kill Anval anymore than she, (40)

Queen Gwendolyn was very mad indeed, She was encompassed in her own greed, But Anval was already on his way, Relaxing away the rest of his days
