On a peaceful day in Ambloome’s kingdom, Nonvor and her kin:
Ambloome, and her husband Lester (not a giant) welcomed in
Representatives, who’d come (from a dimension which was new)
To both Ambloome and her earth born husband, who’d thought there were two.

From a third realm came the Gemsters, people made of coloured stone;
Which resembled precious jewels that decorated Nonvor’s throne:
They were an Emerald Woman, Sapphire Man and Ruby Man as well,
Who’d been lucky to escape a giantess clown called Jester-Belle.

So the Sapphire Man explained that they’d invented amulets
To explore the worlds of space and time, before their tribe forgets
That the cultures of a thousand planes are wonderfully diverse.
So they shook their superstition that such travel was a curse.

Those three travelers (and one Ruby woman) managed to procure
Four new amulets, and used them to lead others on a tour
Made of 50 Gemsters, keen to see the giant kingdom’s sights.
So they came to Nonvor’s kingdom, where they risked their civil rights.

They were found by Jester-Belle and promptly captured by the clown,
Then displayed as living treasures (when the circus came to town)
In her sideshows, making her a fortune, from the revenue;
And the four (who’d come with amulets) were not sure what to do.

If they tried to free the others, they’d be quickly caught themselves,
And become a new addition to the jewellery show of elves.
So the first three could transport themselves to Nonvor’s throne, to plead
For assistance from the giant queen, to foil the villain’s greed.

But the Ruby Woman disappeared, to some third place elsewhere.
Lester showed them his own amulet, and said that they could share
His and Ambloome’s help to free the tourists. Then they recognized
It as Ruby Woman’s amulet; and then they theorized.

Ruby Woman must have gone to earth instead, and lost her tool
(Made for transport), leaving her to hide from humans, as a jewel.
Lester subsequently found it, then took no time to convince
His fiancé (turned to wife) to have adventures ever since.

Nonvor’s palace guard of giants were soon mobilized to storm
Jester-Belle’s now famous circus, where they soon admired the form
Of the Gemsters, once they freed them. Lester led the Ruby guide
Off to earth, and helped him find the Gemster, who’d become his bride.

When the teams had reunited, Gemsters showed their gratitudes,
By designing (so to aid the princess in her interludes)
Her own amulet of giant size, and let her beau retain
That which he had found on earth and used to travel every lane.

One of Nonvor’s royal scribes had quite a traumatizing dream,
That the Time of Yellow Dragons was upon them, as a team
Of such evil beings would present a danger to the folk;
“Dream of Danger from the Dragons who were Yellow as a Yolk.”

He recorded what he’d dreamt, and then he did abbreviate
Such a lengthy title, taking “Dan” from “Danger,” so to state
Things dramatically, with “Yell” from “Yellow.” Then it would unroll
Such a prophecy well documented in the Dan-Yell scroll…
