There's one about being jealous and wishing I were still ruler, one about being afraid to get older, and one about being unfairly exiled.

→     Read me the one about the jealous ruler.
 

I once was the ruler of all I surveyed...

 

But now I'm cast out and I feel so afraid.

 

Nothing I do seem to make the world right...

 

Something something... that rhymes with "right."

player

Hm. That's a tough one.

→     Read me the one about being afraid of getting older.
 

As I watch the clock tick and the sun rise and set...

 

I fear what I love, I am doomed to forget.

 

But I've never been one to do what I'm told...

 

Then I need a line that rhymes with "told."

player

So many things rhyme with "told"... "fold," "bold," "cold"...

→     Read me the one about being unfairly exiled.
 

It seems there's no place I will ever belong...

 

And all of my words seem to come out all wrong.

 

But I'll wait for an answer, I'll wait for a sign...

 

Yada, yada, yada... something that rhymes with "sign."

player

Let me think about that one...

→   Maybe we could ask for help from the other Villagers?
 

You... want to ask the other Villagers? But... would any of them really get how I feel?

player

We've got a lot of Villagers here! I just know some of them will understand exactly how you feel.

 

And... you don't think they'll laugh at my poetry?

→  Of course not! Everyone will love it.
 

[unknown]

→  You can't let those fears stop you from sharing your creativity.
 

You know what? You're right! I'm just a little nervous about talking to them myself...

 

But here, I'll give you my scrap of paper with what I've written so far.<<give item>>

player

I guess now I'll just need to find a jealous wannabe ruler, someone afraid of getting older, and somebody who was unfairly exiled...
