I like this sentence a lot! I know it's not a poem, but it just rhymes and sounds .. well, pretty
Why have you mentioned Hal's name again in the beginning of the second sentence. It's a little redundant. Might have been better had you simply used a pronoun.

You might want to check it up, but I think it's "lead", not "led"
Overall, this is very interesting. I didn't understand why Hal felt guilty when the father took the ruby out of the sword.
I also didn't understand why the sapphire went missing (was the narrator's father stealing from them?)
It's a very random, yet interesting read, in my opinion. The reason it manages to retain interest is because you've given it a perfect length. Anything longer may have become boring and kind of too odd.
