Ode to Two Shield 

 

Oh youthful king, cherub and red

The Element of our great bond

You went into the mountains, hastily sped

In hunt of rarest Laylond.

 

And in your company, solid fit

Your bravest 5 of all

Kings guard so loyal equipped

Your great protectious wall

 

But in your hunt the dark afoul

Had found you searching wide

And wolftooth menace upon the prowl

Had thirst for dwarven hide

 

And strike they did so swiftly so

Ten and ten they came

And though they met the dwarven stow

One monster did remain.

 

And as gnash and stike continued fierce

5 was 4 was 3

The demon slew despite brash or pierce

And 5 was 1 now quickly.

 

And as the armor stood a-tall his ground

The sword loosed from his grip

Prepared to strike, this savage hound,

All hope seemed apt to slip

 

Yet upon the stone as his brother lay

Void of life and spark of band

The dwarf had sent his hand away

And claimed shield upon his second hand.

 

The dwarf had pressed back on iron heels

And though battered would not die

And with the center of dwarf-made shield

Struck out the monster’s eye.

 

Departed swift the beast set flight,

with Gili breathing still

Elemental 4 had survived the night

As Gili-Two Shields set to will.
