The kingdom of Mikhaulia was where they met
Ruby struck Blue Flame's heart ‐ love was set
Ruby - a skilled warrior who danced with swords
Blue Flame - the princess who dined with lords

One donned ruby red and ebony black
The other, sapphire blue and silver locks
Blue lived in gated walls - freedom, she lack
The other lived beyond the sea, around rocks

"I will spend forever with you," said Blue Flame
But Ruby shook her head and looked away
Blue Flame felt sadness and full of shame
Yet she knew naught to burn in disarray

"Don't leave me. Don't go beyond my reach. "
Said Blue Flame, with a tone of desperation
"Disgraceful is the word they beseech,
But I care naught but prevent our separation"

"Never will I leave your side."
Replied Ruby, in a comforting voice
"Wait for me - the ravages of time I will ride
Do not be against me, I had no other choice."

Two opposing figures found trust in each other
Though a conflict proved to be such a bother
With contrasting ideals, the two fought
One was with the enemy, peace yet be sought
