K is for Kevin

You’re just a fresh, freckled face with a cheerful smile Serving drinks at the bar of The Tipsy Hedgehog Offering support and strength to Aggie Every time she casts a wistful glance at the sword Momento of her life as an adventurer she refuses to hide Now there’s Trouble at Caerac Keep, the sword is quite tempting Too many regulars keep disappearing, no longer stopping by Falling prey to a mysterious illness which could be a vampire bite You offer a prayer of thanks to the Unicorn that Rhodry is still well The Goddess looks after the Serpent-Born, no matter what Faith says Exotic and menacing with his golden hair and delicate features You secretly find them beautiful regardless of what folks mutter You haven’t the boldness to speak to Rhodry too often Not with everything that’s happening, plus you’ve got secrets of your own Now the trouble is reaching out of the night, out of your past Reaching with bloody claw and fang to snatch you from your quiet life You can no longer look away from the darkness at the door and smile When the darkness is creeping in, coming for you.
