Lyrical Analysis of...
The Lich King (Part 2)
- Chapter 2
- King Taryn stood, appalled, a shift in mood,
- Frozen like glue, his men stood stiff.
- "We have marched for 50 days, and finally face
- Our destination and nobody wants to taste
- Her blood?
- She slithers in her tower, and now, with our power,
- Allow us to take what is rightfully ours,
- Devour her soul,
- Fear nevermore."
- The King's vision could not be obscured,
- His condition would not be impaired.
- Born a mere peasant, he rose through the ranks,
- Ascension was pleasant, bespoke with no shame
- At the tender age of 12, he knew he was destined to join
- The Elven Army following The Genocide of The Great Tree
- In the year 1430.
- Youngest Head Archer to serve, he impressed,
- His departure was sure to see if he deserved this one test.
- Standing 7'4" with white hair like ice,
- Outstanding before you, a proven champion, thrice.
- His brow was furled from plenty of ruling,
- Having learned from the Elder Magus,
- His sanity slowly un spooling.
- After the Magus was sacrificed by the Queen,
- The King vowed to conquer the entire Western Seaboard,
- Claiming revenge for what had happened to his Master.
- The armor he wore, collected from the Obsidian Mines,
- Warned off all who opposed him for obvious reasons.
- He also enjoyed enchanting his own equipment,
- Something his foes rarely were prepared for.
- An elf wielding magic is rare,
- Not something they teach in the academies
- And not something The King ever did share.
- As Taryn fought with each of his own,
- The Queen took advantage of what had been sown,
- "Taryn! You fool! How do you expect to take what is mine
- When your own men are fool enough to see you Divine?"
- Taryn faced the Queen, "Witch! My army comes with volition,
- Your fortress will fall, and we will
- Teach you the definition of retribution.
- My body may be wary, but
- My spirit remains strengthened by my memories,
- Ready to assist me in annihilating you."
- The Queen smirked with a slight furl of her brow,
- "Taryn, why do you never address me proper, my King?
- I am a Queen, not some common rabble."
- She held her staff with an unusual tension as she finished speaking.
- The King turned to face The Queen,
- "I will not be told how to speak, you fiend.
- I have had dreams of this day for many years,
- And my warriors thirst for the blood of our enemy."
- As Taryn finished speaking, he shouted to his troops,
- "Advance!"
- They rushed forth before their King,
- Like an unstoppable lance.
- With elven haste, they scattered, with heart,
- Finding weaknesses in the structural integrity to start,
- Looking for any advantage to help them
- Tear her fortress apart.
- The Necromancer Queen had foreseen this moment,
- Happening exactly as it was, her glee was now showing.
- She had been scrying into the Abyss for a thousand hours,
- Scouring and devouring what she was not meant to see.
- But, in a sadistic trade of her soul to The Dark One,
- A cryptic intention, her free will would no longer be her own.
- In exchange, a power nearly limitless in potential,
- Existentially dismissed from the plane of the living.
- More power than any elven magus could ever hope to wield.
- Not only would she have access to this unholy weapon,
- But The Dark One had also thrown in a single total resurrection,
- Allowing her to essentially die and be brought back,
- Without question.
- The deal was not without it's exceptions,
- She would have to wait 500 years before resurrecting.
