We set out on our journey, that one fateful day The winds of ****** shrieking angrily above our heads, filling our sails Our ship tossing from Poseidon’s restless sea, sending us astray As our journey wore on, and as night soon fell   We found ourselves awash upon the Isle of Gael Venturing from our ship, now sunken We were met with fearsome creatures, their faces twisted and scarred Escaping from death, daylight soon broke The sky turning grey The thunder rolling in, showed the might of Zeus His anger flickering with jagged lightning, bringing tales of what once had been A guide approached us, his face sunken and pale He begun to tell us the fears of the Earth A time when titans roamed and the mountains burned As he finished his tale He stood and led us through to Mother Gaia’s fortress We walked, hearing Polyhymnia sing her chorus The art lining the walls, long forgotten Depicting tales of battles raged long ago Between the family that ruled Four elements would battle for control, the throne would be held by the mighty Zeus Our journey had soon begun to close We had learned the history of our past As we returned home, our minds alight with new history We found the battles had not ceased We dragged our travel worn bodies upon the shore Only to have to fight for our lives once more As our battle on ground wore on, the gods became angry The mountains rose up and the tides crashed Sending the world into darkened chaos once again We would fight the never ending battle Until all the wrongs were righted

Journey
We set out on our journey, that one fateful day The winds of ****** shrieking angrily above our heads, filling our sails Our ship tossing from Poseidon’s restless sea, sending us astray As our journey wore on, and as night soon fell   We found ourselves awash upon the Isle of Gael Venturing from our ship, now sunken We were met with fearsome creatures, their faces twisted and scarred Escaping from death, daylight soon broke The sky turning grey The thunder rolling in, showed the might of Zeus His anger flickering with jagged lightning, bringing tales of what once had been A guide approached us, his face sunken and pale He begun to tell us the fears of the Earth A time when titans roamed and the mountains burned As he finished his tale He stood and led us through to Mother Gaia’s fortress We walked, hearing Polyhymnia sing her chorus The art lining the walls, long forgotten Depicting tales of battles raged long ago Between the family that ruled Four elements would battle for control, the throne would be held by the mighty Zeus Our journey had soon begun to close We had learned the history of our past As we returned home, our minds alight with new history We found the battles had not ceased We dragged our travel worn bodies upon the shore Only to have to fight for our lives once more As our battle on ground wore on, the gods became angry The mountains rose up and the tides crashed Sending the world into darkened chaos once again We would fight the never ending battle Until all the wrongs were righted
