* The squires stood the castle gate of sword and shield they bear Awaiting armored knights to be, lone sentries now aware A beating sun of torrid feel embarked the sky this day As voices called from eastern heights in echoes cast away The entrance braced of timber thick, yon bridge drawn to the sky To dare not open for the howl of woodland spirit’s cry Banished long ago it was for evil spells it spate Turned villagers upon themselves in angered fits of hate Yet on this simmered summer’s eve the squires balked their stead Hypnotically the whispers called so deep within their head Manipulated by the breeze of kindness floating faux ‘mid promises of purity as white as driven snow “They cast me o’er” a voice did sift “No fault I swear of me, I mingled not in lone affairs this promise comes you see” “A certain few, low cretins all of lies they sold as true and pockets lined of purest gold to do what they must do”   “I plead a pardon so to prove my quest is merely fair In words of mystic wizard speak I pledge to only share" "Hear me, on this mystic night of incantation's win Stand aside this harbored fear so I may live again” In hazy gaze and wild look the squires sealed the fate ‘pon lowering the bridge of wood and opening the gate When once within, the smile gone as crimson eyes now stare “I’ll bring this kingdom to its knees, I will again, I swear” Then sharpened claws of viper’s speed released on angered breath Did slice ensorcelled squire's flesh to bleed until their death* To be continued…maybe

Squires at the gate
* The squires stood the castle gate of sword and shield they bear Awaiting armored knights to be, lone sentries now aware A beating sun of torrid feel embarked the sky this day As voices called from eastern heights in echoes cast away The entrance braced of timber thick, yon bridge drawn to the sky To dare not open for the howl of woodland spirit’s cry Banished long ago it was for evil spells it spate Turned villagers upon themselves in angered fits of hate Yet on this simmered summer’s eve the squires balked their stead Hypnotically the whispers called so deep within their head Manipulated by the breeze of kindness floating faux ‘mid promises of purity as white as driven snow “They cast me o’er” a voice did sift “No fault I swear of me, I mingled not in lone affairs this promise comes you see” “A certain few, low cretins all of lies they sold as true and pockets lined of purest gold to do what they must do”   “I plead a pardon so to prove my quest is merely fair In words of mystic wizard speak I pledge to only share" "Hear me, on this mystic night of incantation's win Stand aside this harbored fear so I may live again” In hazy gaze and wild look the squires sealed the fate ‘pon lowering the bridge of wood and opening the gate When once within, the smile gone as crimson eyes now stare “I’ll bring this kingdom to its knees, I will again, I swear” Then sharpened claws of viper’s speed released on angered breath Did slice ensorcelled squire's flesh to bleed until their death* To be continued…maybe
