Lost Paradise

Long, long ago
A city was formed.
But was slaughtered whole,
Excepts two infants born.

The city went down,
The children left afloat
These ones who will save us,
Our last living hope.

"The story of Tanlasi"

Note: this was inspired by the idea of Atlantis, so if you see some similarities that's why.
