A hopper’s best hope – The frog and the Princess
Welcome back to the kingdom, the one filled with love’s pure light, welcome back to this loveadventure story, where everything always turns out right. It’s been a while, but not much has changed. The lovely Princess is still so lovely, and the frog is still, well, deranged.
However, the slimy frog is still jumpy too. He dreams big, loves hard, and has that strange taste in food. Furthermore, he is determined, and has that can do attitude. Now, along the pond he travels as a stealthy toad. (Mainly because a frog isn’t safe on the road.)
Then, upon a lily pad, a slimy hopper takes a rest. He wants to scroll the flipper book, and see which route will be the best. All through his journey, a frog heart in such distress. How he made it this far, is anybody’s guess.

Furthermore, if one looks closely, they will see. This jumpy frog is hiding something, and it flickers brightly. It must have been difficult, to carry it all this way. And so carefully handled, in the most peculiar, and caring way. Now this frog is taking a rest, from the urgency of his quest.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond, the Royal castle sits, just beyond. It sparkles and glimmers in the noon day sun. Because it is under the care of the lovely one. The ramparts glisten, and shine with attention to every detail. And all the castle guard watches without fail.
Now, on the concourse, and with exquisite grace, the lovely Princess arrives for an inspection of the place. Though it is still some time away, sooner than not, it will be that special day. Then all the kingdom will gather for a celebration. And at the festival of many lights, there will be a dedication.
The frog and the Princess
Softly the lovely Princess smiles, as she examines the concourse and the castle gates. Then over to the royal spire, where the special flame usually awaits. However, this year is different from those in the past. The special flame had been extinguished in a storm fueled windy blast.
Though not the most important artifact of the changing season, the special flame had purpose, and was kept for that reason. The flame represents what is steadfast and true. Therefore, a festival without it, just wouldn’t do.
The lovely one looks upon all the decorations and preparations for the big event. According to the Royal advisor, another flame has already been sent. It travels by way of courier, and is guaranteed to be there post-haste. The lovely Princess hopes so, because there is no time to waste.
Hidden Flame
Meanwhile, on a lily pad in the pond rests a jumpy frog. Now time to move, time to go. Because a steady wind has started to blow. A slimy frog with a flame hidden carefully. On his way to make it a delivery. Whilst up above, and all around, an angry wind makes a roaring sound.
Time to hurry and make haste. As the Lady said, there is no time to waste. A jumpy frog hops up, and into the storm, carries the flame. If he makes it to the other side he will never be the same. Across the kingdom now, a storm simmers and brews. And for a frog with a flame, there’s no time to lose.
