The nightmare saga (part 1 - part 3)

  • The wolf stalks in the dark
    The bear peels the tree bark
    The fox grunts and pants
    And the madman rants
    The adventurer observes them all
    An arrow let loose, the madman does fall
    He walks over the body to loot
    Comes up with naught but a boot
    Angry he lets loose a thumn
    The sky shakes from the boom
    A courier runs up looking rather hot
    "A letter from a friend I've got"
    He say with a pant, then is off
    The adventurer watches with a scoff
    The letter is sealed with a bow
    A black hand adorned "we know"
    The letter he does keep
    "Might be time to get some sleep"
    He leaves the scene of the attack
    For his horse he must track
    At night he enters his home
    Quickly reads through a tome
    His weapons he does keep
    As he readies to sleep
    He lays his head on the sack 
    And everything turns black.

    (Part 2)
    He wakes up in a shack
    Get up rubbing his back
    "Your sleep well for a killer"
    A smooth emits from behind a pillar
    He turns looking for the source
    "Show yourself!" yelling his voice hoarse
    A woman appears clad in black
    "I would advise against an attack"
    He feels a point on his neck
    And arrow is pointed, holding him in check
    The woman motions to the wall
    "Of we four one must fall"
    The man observes the three
    "One must die, if you wish to be free"
    The man show a feral grin
    Hair sprouts out of his skin
    His bones stretch and crack
    His pushes the woman onto her back
    A slash does the deed
    And the beast begins to feed
    He curls up amidst the gore
    And goes to sleep once more.

    (Part 3)
    The beast finally falls asleep
    The man get up with a leap
    He looks upon his Nordic kin
    And releases him stopping the din
    He slay the woman and the cat
    And gives the coward a pat
    He dons Astrids gear
    The coward quivers in fear
    The man leaves the shack
    Walking on, never looking back
    A shadow knock, on a door
    He wait, looking into the moor
    "What is the meaning of life"
    "It has none, only strife"
    He enters alone, unseen
    To the home of what might have been
    The Nord is quickly killed first
    His blood fuels the man's thirst
    The lizard goes soon after
    Ended by a bolt from the rafter
    The Dunmer dies a poetic one
    Gored by a carved unicorn horn
    The jester cracks naught a joke
    As silently he is pulled into a choke
    The Wizard stabbed in the neck
    Now the un-child he shall check
    From the shadow came the attack
    Riding upon Liz's back
    The man smirks at the fool
    And utters Yol-Toor-Shul
    Babette goes rather like a wisp
    Her bones burnt to a crisp
    He saves the Redguard for last
    At whom lighting he does cast
    Nazir's heart gives a thump
    And unto the floor he does slump
    The man torches the base
    And heads out into the open space.

    Indeed it is, it would just follow the format of a poem, and over time the character shall be reviewed. If you read thorough I have already hinted at his race. So yes this will be a regular thing but in order to conserve space it will be in threes like above.

    Much better. Thank you. :)
    Perhaps I've misinterpreted something, though. Is this a series that you plan to continue in further installments?

    Ah in that case done, how does it look?

    Indeed, but how would I go about that? I an quite willing to conform if you can teach me.

    I appreciate that you've posted your poetry here, but you really ought to condense the three parts into one blog post. There's not enough content to warrant that many separate entries.
