    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

    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
