<br />
First there was a creature, small and frail<br/><br />
First there was a trembl'ing little thing<br/><br />
Living in the forest as an animal<br/><br />
Eating wild berries as an animal<br/><br />
Sleeping 'neath the stars as an animal<br />
<br />
One eye in the middle of it's head<br/><br />
Two feet to walk the ground<br/><br />
Large ears to hear all around it<br/><br />
Fanged mouth to bite and tear<br/><br />
Though it needn't so<br />
<br />
The animal, it smelled a truffle<br/><br />
A favorite food to be sure<br/><br />
It smelled, and dug, and dug<br/><br />
And at the bottom, it found not fungus<br/><br />
But an ancient mask<br />
<br />
'''2. The Artifact'''<br />
<br />
First there was a mask, of red and white<br/><br />
First there was a horrifying presence<br/><br />
Lying buried in the ground<br/><br />
Lying hidden from all else<br/><br />
Lying from those who would abuse it<br />
<br />
Two holes to let the light shine through<br/><br />
Perfectly rounded edges, despite its age<br/><br />
Two sides, one crimson, one alabaster<br/><br />
Buried in dirt, but clean and bright<br/><br />
Yet terrifying all the same<br />
<br />
The creature looked upon it<br/><br />
Saw that it looked a perfect fit<br/><br />
And proceeded to put it on<br/><br />
And there it sat, upon his face<br/><br />
Yet did not move after that<br />
<br />
'''3. The Negotiation'''<br />
<br />
"Off, mask!" said the creature<br/><br />
And the mask did not budge<br/><br />
And the creature's sight turned to darkness<br/><br />
And a voice rang out inside his head<br/><br />
"I will not move, my good man."<br />
<br />
"Please, off with you!" said the creature<br/><br />
"My face burns, my eyes have gone,<br/><br />
My ears are ringing! Help me!"<br/><br />
Yet the voice did not comply<br/><br />
"I have quite a deal for you."<br />
<br />
"You let me use your body,<br/><br />
And I shall give you power."<br/><br />
The voice laughed, the creature did not<br/><br />
"It's too good to refuse,<br/><br />
So you may as well give in."<br/><br />
<br />
'''4. The Demon'''<br />
<br />
Then there was a demon of shadowy black<br/><br />
Then there was an evil masked being<br/><br />
With skin ethereal, eye glowing<br/><br />
Mask contorted, distorted, shaped<br/><br />
As would be a demon's face<br />
<br />
And the creature's brain was muddled<br/><br />
And the demon's mind took over<br/><br />
A name for itself -- "Masquerade"<br/><br />
A perfect name for one so shady<br/><br />
Sinister, terrifying<br />
<br />
And it used its tremendous powers<br/><br />
To bring its wrath upon the land<br/><br />
Bringing darkness to every stretch of sky<br/><br />
And murky waters to every mile of sea<br/><br />
And a plague upon the land</div>Skub
