And many moons then came and went
That men in secret work now spent
To try and build the village strong
Against the mighty teaming throng.And day does rise and time now passed
And councils called to start their task.
Inside the hut the Jedi meet
To long discuss the coming feat."The time does come the harvest nears
Along with all our biding fears
And day now waxes well at hand
For Jubie to make his coming plan.And go yet foth to frustrate foes
By granting men their coming woes."And Jubie nods and reckons well
To quick destroy where bandits dwell.
Before when such can bring their harm
And cause in serfs a great alarm.And all now gathered nodded head
To do what fellow men did pledge
And guard this place from coming woe
And fend their keep as liege abode.But Kelan noted sour face
That Tarlson's form did current place
That many moons refused to leave
As man by slight was long yet grieved.But held he tongue still at hour
And dared not break their meager power
They forged to combat coming woe
That sure will rain on present bode.But still he noted well to quest
And heart of man to future test.
Whence a time convenient found
Could show what secrets heart now bounds...
