A butterfly in hand
A sunny warm day filled the sky's, a man wandering about. Suddenly got the urge to go mining as he felt that he needed to catch up on his smithing. Why in the corner of his eye while mining the tedious coal, a butterfly flapping its wings about. I looked at the butterfly asking "why is a butterfly in a cave!?" I went up to it to see whats up, and then i noticed he went up to me instead! "What is this! Is the butterfly following me!?" I started walking around to see if it is true... i walked left, i walked right, i walked everywhere in sight! I thought i was going crazy, that butterfly all up high. I asked darkthrone, "why do you see this butterfly!?" Oh it can't be true i thought! Oh have i gotten a companion at last! With no summoning at hand.
I mined a full inventory of coal and mithril and walked up the ladder to bank my items. I looked to see if it was following me. It was not... I went back down thinking, "oh has it gone, has my only companion gone!?" But no! It was waiting their for my return, sitting their at that very turn. At the ladder there it was. I ran all around to see if it was still true. Why yes, oh yes, it has given me a clue."You can't be a butterfly!" I said all mighty, "why you can not be a butterfly in this cave. It is impossible to fly in a cave with no space!"
I yet again got another inventory full of coal and Mith. For i have been thinking, "Why yes this must be a hint!"I rushed back down to see if it is still there, and yet again it is flying with its wings flapping everywhere! "Oh my companion, don't ever leave me so! I will never let you go! Come follow me around this place, we must make haste!" I ran and ran mining everything up, but then i noticed "Where has my butterfly gone!" I looked left, i looked right, it was nowhere in site. I went back to the ladder to try and see if it was all right. It was still there, but with no companionship in its eyes. "What is wrong! I thought we were friends!" It would no longer follow me around. So i went back to mining, feeling empty inside. For i had no butterfly at my side. I looked back to see Creantor come all the way down here, and then as he came... it went, and dissapeared. With the emote of a Teleport, the question popped in my mind, "Wait, how can a Butterfly follow without a mind? How can a Butterfly fly with no space in a small cave like this with such haste!? How oh how can a butterfly be so friendly? With Summoning, not at all handy!" I thought and i thought about that butterfly all night, I then realized this is a clever trick, With some magic in mind.
Thanks guys for reading! BTW this REALLY happened... A butterfly followed me around dwarfs cave, Darkthrone was my witness! I just had to add a twist to it, to make it a little bit more interesting! I thought it would be fun, to tell a story in rhymes
