A ballad that Litam is happy to recite to whomever would like to listen. This is also a common ballad in city taverns. The story, well, one of - the ballad of the Fractured One and the Sundowner.
Hair the color of harvest moon,
eyes the color of internal blood.
Skin of ivory trinkets, soul of warm gold.
Frosty mountain resident,
sister of pure white.
Bright powers in dark times,
Fall, rise, and fight.
Fates’ challenged gift of eternal Life,
through peril, heartache, all unending strife.
Dawn enchanted path of quiet strength,
there at the end of unmeasurable length.
Darkness precedes, darkness behind,
but Light’s warrior to Hate is ever-blind.
In Ages of old, times gone by;
mysteries of ancients quietly lie.
From years of the past, forgotten and gone.
Comes Light warrior, now Dark anon!
Through endless lifes two tumble, fight and die.
Their encounters make cities tremble,
Oceans shake, clouds fall from sky.
Small boy, Great lord, Light prince, Dark king.
Echo silent powers through valley and mountain,
space and time, Fate’s duo ring.
Chosen for eternity, one old, one new.
The Battle Final, not till doors close, planets crumble
and cities fall will their stalemate be through.
Bloodless lips, eyes of burning fire.
Through dripping sockets glare Hate and ire.
Skinless face, all paleness and greed.
Envy and darkness in black soul bubbles and breeds.
Death’s messenger cringes at the name,
for pulsing shriveled heart pumps
to rhythm of deadly game.
Banshees’ wail and siren sing
quail at sight of bony hand dressed with cursed signet ring.
Corpse’s rot adorns white haired brow,
Beware! cold fingers,
for Death-fatal signal-will they endow.
First Life long gone, and more to come,
In end of conflict, Balance tipped scale is the sum.
Weather and nature to their power will bend,
Jungle, field, bowery and village will Dark warrior rend.
River, sea and ocean boil.
By murky hand volcanoes erupt, lava roils.
Bright armor glints off sunshine’s fiery rays,
Ebony necromancer quells under Paladin’s steady gaze.
Magic strength and powers bold,
Fire and ice, love and cold.
Eternal-galactic fight-of Good and Evil to determine
who will ‘ever reign.
Final Death of one, will make battle cosmic wan.
Yet only one can be other’s bane.
