Fear and Power.
A lesson,
from a sword,
hung by a single strand of hair.
But what would become of the sword?

and took care of the garden as a sign of peace and goodwill.
For centuries, the garden was lost,
but it has now been found.

Peace won't last forever
if the garden is left unkept.
For the flowers will be consumed by the weeds,
and the ghost will be left to haunt.
