The Orb of the Dryads

from HDK 128 † The orchid of life by PAFUND

/

lyrics

You stand in the clearing, quite still, and then several slim young women emerge: you are in the presence of the Dryads of the Forest. The Nymphs chatter among themselves for a minute, their voices like the breeze through the leaves, and then they move forward again. One holds out a small crystal sphere, saying, “Take it, it will guide and protect you through the darkness which no mortal light can penetrate. Trust the Orb of the Dryads”. You take the beautiful orb, and hesitate a moment, unsure what to do with it. Finally, you put it away in your backpack, and thank the Dryads; but when have you been speaking they have melted back into the forest. A last clear voice calls out, faint as the breeze in the trees “Go North!” Then all is oppressive silence again and you are alone.
