From the Land of Sil and Ly. There once was a King from the Land of Sil who searched high and low for a bride. No one in his land met his list of requirements. There were plenty of near hits but most were just close misses because they didn’t have everything on the list. Seriously, he looked for years, and just couldn’t understand why with all the lovely ladies in his land of Sil, he couldn’t find someone that was just perfect, someone that had everything on his list. So he sent his emissary to the next land over, the land of Ly.
There was a beautiful princess in the land of LY who was looking to marry, but she too had a list of requirements. Somehow, all the handsome young men in her land came so close but they too were just near hits and close misses. As the years passed by, her sadness grew.
The people in the land of Sil and the land of Ly were all very sad for the King and the princess because they loved them so and wanted them both to be happy and fulfilled but were upset that they were both so stubborn and a bit blinded by their need for perfection.
When the emissary from the land of Sil was greeted by the princess’ emissary from the land of Ly they came up with a perfect solution. They said, why don’t we request that our King and princess try to make some compromises so that both our Lands will be happy and prosper. So they arranged that the King and the Princess should meet. When they met they realized that their lists were not as important as the actual wonderful people they saw in person right before their eyes and they fell in love with one and other and joined their two lands together to become the Land of “Silly”. Not only did the King and Princess marry, they matched up the many wonderful women in the land of Sil with the wonderful men in the land and Ly and the whole community prospered. The End.
