Fire and Steel

The cascade falls of fire
Burn all who venture higher
To orient gates of Idas fates
In singeing wooded pyres
Undead Roman legionnaires
Riding undead flaming mares
Protect the myth with a burning scythe
From any who venture there
Our hero finds himself
Climbing high above the shelf
Of earths own crust for now he must
Find flames that never cease to burn
High atop the summits peak
We find our hero dead and weak
From the sightless climb he hears the chime
Of an undead generals horn
You! Draconian beast of fire!
Blamed and labeled saintly liar
Whom the gods find fit to lead
The undead ranks on fateful steed
Let me pass into the cave
Or feel my wrath you wretched slave
Ill smite thee now if you dont bow
Ill place ye in thy grave
With a call thatd pierce a dead mans heart
The general gave a rampant start
To quicken death for our heros breath
But only found the swordsmans art
The dripping blade fell down aside
What would be blood had burned and died
Scorched steel remained on his arcane
Sword forged within a holy pride
The demon rests on smoldered ground
His flames had died with a screeching sound
The frame he held had seemed to meld
Into the dirt, now a skeletal mound.
This now concludes the first of our tale
The seasons twisted and turned
I call the muse to help me unveil
This story scorched and burned
