The Paladin and the Minstrel
« on: February 17, 2005, 04:22:00 am »
Hi there

well here is a little thing i wrote after trying layonara for the first time. This is based on a trip to the crypts in Hlint. Look me up in-game and i am sure Geir will tell you all about it over a mug of ale at the inn :)


The Paladin and the minstrel

In a town so serene,
a plague was growing unseen.
Undead roamed the crypts of town,
and most men did upon that frown.

Two strangers met and thought,
to end the plague they sought.
One a paladin strong and bold,
the other a minstrel who a story told.

Into the crypts they went,
with light from heavens sent.
Sir Rolf held forth his sword,
and forward strode the courageous lord.

In the darkest crypt they found,
a creature there was bound.
A creature dark as night,
with eyes that were glowing bright.

Undead servants it had,
but it mattered not a tad.
Into the fray they went,
so the creature to darkness could be sent.

But alas the minstrel fared not well,
the creature took him to hell.
As the minstrel was torn from this place,
Sir Rolf smashed the creatures face.

As dust settled the plague was no more,
the essence of the creature the paladin bore.
A hero, fair and strong he is,
the minstrel we sure will miss.

Their names will sound in every hall,
the minstrel and Sir Ridderwall.
