This

This longstanding settlement, this harbour of peace;
This mystical crystal valley, this arcane world;
This enchanted needle in a haystack, this tiny star in the deep dark;
This hidden oasis, concealed and entwined with nature,
Teeming with life and magic, a safe haven for all magical misfits;
This sanctuary of creatures unknown,
Wondrous and extraordinary, radiant with the light of magic;
This collection of abodes, humble and happy;
This mellow glow among the foliage,
Like a golden blush along the face of the Earth;
This refuge, this hearth, this home, this magical village.
