Fable of Dragon Fodder

There is a tale my friends, listen and hear

A twisting tale of death, adventure, and fear

A tale of blood, once as a river they flooded

A tale of bones, now long silent and blooded

 

There once was a man, young and merry was he

Strong and brave, he was meant to be free

He danced with his blade, bowing to none

Enjoying his life, enjoying life’s freedom

 

Then one day his merry was slaved

Taken away to work for his grave

Chained, he was bound, yet his heart was free

He knew pain like none other, always agony

 

Furiously he gave his time to think

Mentality brought to its open brink

Engulfed in reality, he was dismayed

His freedom was corrupted and betrayed

 

Days passed and then into weeks

Months flew by, loosing skills and feats

More men came, shackled and heart broken

Their time, their names, lost and taken

 

Dear dragon fodder drifted away and away

His life basically an extreme lie

The warning bells rang, something was a stir

Fire in the mountains and an angry roar

 

Other fled, but he had stayed his ground

Soldiers rushed forth and ran all around

A great dragon rushed forth from the peaks

Hungry after its winter, looking for what it eats

 

The human camp, delightfully around

Right planted in the dirt, prey surrounds

It felt the arrows bounce off its scales

Terrified cries as fire erupted, screams and wails

 

Armor became useless to the hungry flames

They always preached about the end of days

Men on fire flew from its storm

A hail of fire and flames fell among the forms

 

He picked up two fallen guards swords, head held high

Like a beacon to the gods, metal held to the sky

Catapults fired, the dragon was flung to the ground

And arose the great warrior, honor bound

 

He leapt onto the catapult, commanding fire!

Swords raised, his voice: aim higher aim higher!

Launching with a mighty cry which chilled blood

His eyes a wild emerald, ferocity of a flood

 

He landed upon its head, slashing eye to eye

Undead never sleep, demons never die

With a mighty roar which shook the land around

Buildings crumbled, towers fell crashing to the ground

 

He swung away, finding anything to hack

Scales we’re falling and time seemed to lapse

The sound died, the area was sacked

He stood triumphant upon the dragon’s scaled back

 

Survivors slowly came out, weapons at the ready

Mourn for the lose, one man too many

His name was long lost into the forever

His new name shall be Lord Dragon Fodder
