Go, lowly farmboy!
Transformed; now a fake pirate.
Race to find your bride.

What is its meaning,
this word, "inconceivable"?
Sicilians don't know.

Spaniard, sword-master:
'Let me introduce myself,
if you've six fingers.'

Wizened old crack-pot
thought the pirate said "to blathe",
but it was "True Love".

The evil ring needs to be destroyed in a volcano.

"Okay, well let's start walking."

So, they walk.
And walk some more.
...And walk some more.
......And walk some more.

They walk until they find elves.
They walk until they find talking trees.
They walk until they find ogres.

They drop the ring into a volcano.

They walk back home.
And hopefully take a bath.
