It's simple...

Got a wimple, with a crumple,

Stolen from a nun, during gospel,

Her outrage turned her purple,

Hardly fitting for god's pupil,

So a quick threat, with a scalpel,

Then I had to flee the temple,

Not like in a movie, and climb the steeple,

But across veggie patch did I trample,

And through some woods avoiding people,

Until I reached the old old maple,

And there I sat with my sample,

With its little rumple,

Until a man with chin of dimple,

And crimson pimple,

Said that it was ample,

To swap for his bright opal…

.

Gosh adventure games are simple…

That really made me smile.

And it had a nice little post script too, that illuminates the whole thing!

I like that in a poem.

PS Also, no-one was covered in blood, wimpering in a corner, dressed all in black as a cat hisses. For example!!

Wimple was the first thing I thought of when I saw the prompt.
