£^-^,,,,,, - - - - elves live in the land  - - -  - ,,,,,,^-^£
^-^,,,,,,, - -  - - beyond the great dam.  -  - - - ,,,,,,,^-^

,,,,,,,,,, - - - - - - - - - - -  - - - - - - - - - ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, they  were  very  manipulative,  and  we ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, came to trust them.  - -  - - - - - - us ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, kids would play  down  at the water even ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, though we were not allowed. - -  - - - - ,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,, -  -  sometimes  the sluice would  close ,,,,,,,,,,
^,,,,,,,,, entirely,  and  the  river  at  the dams ,,,,,,,,,^
-^,,,,,,,, foot would dry  up, revealing the  rocky ,,,,,,,,^-
^-^,,,,,,, water   garden  that   had  been  hidden ,,,,,,,^-^
£^-^,,,,,, beneath, and we would go there. - - -  - ,,,,,,^-^£
&£^-^,,,,, - -  - -  before  the  dam opened again, ,,,,,^-^£&
#&£^-^,,,, there would be a  signal,  but the elves ,,,,^-^£&#
@#&£^-^,,, would  make us not hear it, and suddenly ,,,^-^£&#@
#@#&£^-^,, we would find  the water rising, already ,,^-^£&#@#

#@#&£^-^,, - - - - - - - -  - - - - - - - - - - - - ,,^-^£&#@#
