He came in the night, and took all the souls The whisperer of darkness, Caller of angels Trapped in this world Two swords, blades were crossed These deadly weapons, brought to life Forged on earth, unbreakable steel He travelled the world searching out all the sinners His army now grown, Formed over the years The time as come for the war to begin The goodness of the world, against all this sin Who will win in this long awaited war Will it be the goodness, purest of hearts Or will it be the sinner, darkest heart of all Out of the mist came a man with two swords One blade of goodness, one blade of hatred His heart good and evil Whats does this mean to all of these people He stood on the battle field right in the middle Held out his blades and shouted “I am the being that follows no leader Join me now and ill spare your souls” All they just laughed and took out there guns Firing on him left a white cloud of dust They all waited smoke fading fast There he stood without a wound He swords moved so smooth He cut all the bullets in two They lay at his feet As he grinned at the crowd now gathered around They bowed to his feet and joined both sides Good and hate combined as one This man turned to dust And travelled into each of them Forming this new race Many years past And to this very day The race now called humans Don’t know how they were man Except one boy who wrote this down His soul been the soul Of the creator of all Now this boy shares both hate and happiness But is lost in the mist Without the answers to the questions Now he’s not human Just a being of the past Looking for a peace that will never come… |

This so sounds a little like a short version of "The Lord of the Rings". I really liked it a lot. Cold hands means a warm heart |

This was awesome! Haven't seen any fantasy around the boards lately, and it's very refreshing. Very original too, this was like a new poetic creation myth! -matt |
