War Gods’ Song

A warrior so strong he outlived half a dozen kings

too strong to be taken down, no matter what war brings

though his life was simple he was bound to swing his sword

power earned in battle was, for him, its own reward

So began his hunt for ever stronger enemies

but no matter who he fought, he brought them to their knees

fearful that the skills he couldn’t test would soon stagnate

he found a tournament where he could still participate

His king brought knights and soldiers from all corners of the world

an era of excitement in the kingdom had unfurled

as the tournament progressed much talent was displayed

the warrior however felt his plans had been betrayed

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

Every knight he fought it seemed was weaker than the last

it filled him with anger when the fights would end too fast

into madness he began a quick and cold descent

declaring he’d fight every person at the tournament

In the chaos every knight took arms against that man

but the wisest of them quickly dropped their swords and ran

it became a war between the warrior and all

soon the royal army had to answer to the call

He fought every knight on whom he laid his fearsome eyes

threatening is own home country with a cruel demise

when the situation looked as grim as it could be

then a light shone down upon the land for all to see

In the light appeared the god of war the kingdom served

guardian of battles where he dealt what was deserved

he looked upon the warrior whose quest would never end

and took the mortal in his hand, so they could both ascend

The god of war spoke kindly to the warrior at last

“though your time had not yet come, the final die was cast

in the realm of gods you’ll find more suitable a war

the realm of mortals can’t contain your power anymore”

The warrior just smiled and tried to kill the deity

and laughed in jubilation when he dodged it easily

still today they fight each other in an endless bout

glee in every battle cry and joy in every shout
