SimplySeo 5241 Popular Post Share Posted May 11, 2023 Farewell to Barrowton127th year of the Second Age Joy and mirth filled the air of Barrowton a final time as the concert began in the ruins of Juli’el’s Temple of the Burning Bush, a building which, despite its ruined nature, had seen constant use ever since the founding of the Kingdom of the Barrowlands. One last time, the pious Barrowlanders gathered about their Cardinal Antonius for a sermon unlike any other. Guitar in hand, and flanked by his bandmates, the Hyspian priest began to sing…[MUSIC]De signs are all around us, we're living en de end times De world es getting darker, et's harder to keep strong en mind Pero we know that our God es faithful, He'll be with us to de end Y even en de chaos, we can trust en Him again et's de end of Almaris as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side et's de end of Barrowton as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side There's wars y rumors of wars, y nations rising up The earth es groaning for redemption, y we're waiting for that day to come But en de midst of all de turmoil, we can have peace within For our hope is en de One who saves, y en His victory we'll win et's de end of Almaris as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side et's de end of Barrowton as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side So let us stand firm en our faith, y let our love abound For de end es just de beginning, of de glory that we've found Y though Almaris may shake us, we will not be doomed For we know that our God es with us, y His truth will see us through et's de end of Almaris as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side et's de end of Barrowton as we know it Pero we'll be just fine, with DIOs by our side As the singing concluded, the King of the Barrowlands, Tar-Uriel felt tears well in his eyes, a not infrequent occurrence ever since his Kingdom began to fall into disrepair courtesy of the Mori’quissir, but unlike times previous, these were not tears of mourning. He did not weep for his people, nor his lands- He wept with pride swelled in his chest, pride for their perseverance, their defiance in the face of the enemy. As Tonito’s song concluded, and cheers rang out among the crowd gathered, he realized that others wept too, for they too were consumed with pride and faith. It was then he knew, one day they would defeat their insurmountable foe, even if it was not today, and even though Barrowton was going to fall, he and his folk would survive it all and would come out better for the trials had reforged them. But that thought was interrupted with another…. Barrowton didn’t have to fall to the Mori’quissir. With that thought in mind, and joy in the hearts of him and his community of misfits, the Harrenite Warlord ascended the stage beside the Cardinal and his band, he cleared his throat… And spoke. Thus, in the flames of faith, not war, did Barrowton burn, and the Barrowlanders who settled that land, and claimed it for Canondom, concluded their mission, and marched for refuge in the south. And as they did, it was with a new song on their lips... Flame would cleanse the Barrowlands 52 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrHope 586 Share Posted May 11, 2023 [!] Amidst the holy purification of Barrowton, a guardsman couldn't help but feel pride to bear the Star of Malchediael even as smoke obscured his vision. He smiled however as one of the youth joined his people in sending off Barrowton in a blaze of glory. It was a fine day for bbq as he sung a song from the rock concert.

Ireneically 248 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Within those lands, that blonde headed lass smiled... Not the sun's smile, nay.. But that of flames. Princess Briar loved her people and her lands... But this? This was pay back... Folk believed perhaps Barrowton would be turned into a central traveling hub for the Mori as it slowly sunk and sunk and sunk... Not this day or anyday. Flames to cleanse the earth, to cleanse that vile scarring of memory and land from the putrid Mori'quissir.. Her hand tossed that bottle into the scholarium walls... And fire erupted Infront of her visage, spreading across and all around her within the matter of seconds. Good times were coming... By the Adunians' own accord, not any one elses. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles The Bald 1789 Share Posted May 11, 2023 As the town burned town, the dwarf marched forward, he knew fires from wood couldn't melt the metals within them, his last gift to Barrowton would be to steal their valuables left behind. "Ah'm the richest dwarf alive roight now" would say the dwarf as he jumped and clapped his feet at his newly found resource pit. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
