A kingdom veiled in shadow's lore,
The hero, bound, yet longing for
A queen in stone, her spirit sore,
Their silent love, a whispered core.
The hero, from her essence spun,
A guardian in shadows, one,
With love profound, though battles won,
For queen and realm, till time is done.
The queen, in stone, her essence sealed,
Her sacrifice, a love revealed,
From quicksilver's touch, a fate congealed,
Their connection, a battlefield.
