Three troublesome traitors traveled to town

Talking together, taking their time.

Tonight, tragedy threatened to take the throne.

--

Henry heralded His Highness

Horrible harm haunted his horizon.

Here Henry hollered, “Help!”

--

Even Evangeline echoed encouragement.

“Exit everyone! Escape, escape!”

Embers entered, enshrouding everything.

--

Perched precariously, Percy protected Prince Peter’s palace.

Percy proved powerful, preserving Prince Peter.

Perilous perfidy prevented, Percy prevailed.

--

“Loyal liegemen, let’s linger little!

Lawbreakers learn lessons--like losing lives!

Let’s lethally level loathsome losers!”

--

Only Overlord Orin objected.

Observing once on offense,

Odious outcomes often occurred.

--

The troops taunted these timid tactics,

Taking the three troublesome traitors to the tomb.

Thus, the trustworthy townspeople triumphed.
