House of Savoy - a Letter of Forbidden Love

As the knight of Savoy protects the kingdom,
one of the oldest monarchies. He does so, by riding the dragon,
this beast tamed and true, with fiery breath and eyes of blue
but if the truth be known. It would tear this kingdom apart,
whence comes the stories of Dracula and gargoyles.
The children of darkness, who rule the night with terror,
for when fallen ones mate with men, appearing as angels of light
but the abominations and destruction will soon follow.
The beginning of a saga.
The Chevalier, after his first quest of killing a dragon.
Rescues a young maiden named Aile.
A young woman of extraordinary beauty.
Apon bringing her home to the house of savoy and following in love.
They decide to hide their love and the beast within,
for you see my friends, Aile is a weredragon.
The first abomination and the mother of the night.
She shifts, from light to dark at will and when scaled up.
Fire and brimstone, she does spew and an awesome sight,
with knight, upon her back and they do protect their kingdom.
By secretly unleashing their children, on any kingdom,
that might rise against them or suspect the truth.
My candle has just blown out and___
