This poem refers to the legends behind the first dryads. Although the author is unknown many believe that it was written by a Varsa. It is said in the old days there used to be two distinct groups of dryads, fire and water. According to the legend somewhere along the line the two opposing factions joined because of a marriage between the prince of the fire dryads and the princess of the water dryads.
This joining created the typical dryads as they are seen today, clouds of steam-like vapor. Although many hold that there are still a few fire and water dryads alive to this day.
"The Unification"
I see a hand, a hand of flame,
It grasps a frozen heart.
And on this hand is found a name,
that never will depart.
I see a face, a face of ice.
It views two burning eyes.
It holds back though flames entice,
As crystal ice cries.
I hear a word, a floating breath,
That warms the coldest soul.
It wants to have a final death,
So they can be made whole.
A soft reply of floating snow,
She whispers back the same.
A breath that chills the warming blow,
Of heat that is his name.
I see a hand, a hand of ice,
It grasps a burning heart.
And on this hand is found the price,
That never will depart.
I see a face, a face of fire,
It views two crystal eyes.
Of this view he will not tire,
As the burning flame cries.
A heart melts down, a heart beat stalls,
As hands hold what remain.
The crystal drops and fire falls,
As tears fall like rain.
I hear their words, their love is true,
Until the bitter end.
They are committed through and through,
Their love will never bend.
I see them now, together now,
And with a firm embrace.
The fire dies, ice melts down,
They're gone without a trace.
They said their vows and held them near,
And now the weddings done.
They conquered their internal fear,
And the two have become one.
