¨&¨&&¨¨¨&& - - - - elves live in the land - - - - ¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨&&&¨¨&¨ - - - - beyond the great dam. - - - - ¨¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨
¨¨¨&¨&&¨¨¨ - it was built in the late sixties. - ¨¨¨&¨¨¨&¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨&&&¨¨ - - - the elves came to us then. - - - ¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨&¨

¨&¨¨¨¨¨&¨& 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 &&¨¨¨&&&¨¨
¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨ at our knees. - - - - - - - - - - - - ¨&&¨¨&¨&&¨
¨¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ¨&&&¨¨¨&&&
&¨¨&¨¨¨&¨¨ - by then the elves would be gone. - ¨&¨&&¨¨&¨&
