The Night Aegis Fell

[Lus146 7]

I found this old poem my grandfather, Lus the Bard, wrote after he survived the battle for Aegis and I figured I'd share it with some people so please spread it.

We knew that they were always there

We just didn't really care

When they struck and killed our dear

We didn't forget, we didn't forgive...

It started to get worse

The times they struck

We'd win by luck

The gods in our favor

And then celebrating...free of labor

It started to get worse I say

I prove this with that one dreaded day

The one they took out home town

That one town

Our town

It was covered in netherrack

Smeared with lava

You would never know that city once thrived

It was the city that died

Al'Khazar the city that died

It died high of pride

We thought that they would stop

But no, they kept us on our toes

Constantly worrying about being robbed

Killed or assaulted

People became panicked

We didn't know what was right

Or what was wrong

Or what was a little in between

They kept pushing with one place left

A Forest were the elven kind lived

And it thrived, oh it thrived!

All those branches and leaves

But what I miss most is the mighty mighty trees

They burned it down

Down to the ground

Oh I'll miss the leaves and branches and trees

But those were not of my worries

But were these

They had taken it all our pride and our spirit

Thrown it to the ground as they attacked out center

Our beating heart our thinking mind our pounding soul

And in the last days

I heard music play

Music of drought suffering no ease

I heard the sound of a little boys wheeze

As the last men fell

And we crawled into the dark

The verge they said, the verge

Though I hardly heard...
