The Story of Our Heroes
Here lies a tale so old to be foretold
 It was a time when younglings were cast upon the shores of Hell
 forever seeking the almighty warrior
 who had the power of gods in his hands
 Let us bask in the glory of a story, 
 so come here, 
 come all, to share in a tale known by all
 
 Here is the warrior, 
 basking in the blessing of gods themselves
 Training for the day he would meet his 
 almighty opponent 
 
 Alas! Fate has been foretold! Here comes the 
 monster hidden by his henchmen, 
 masked in his cloak of everlasting darkness
 His eyes as red as the red-blood sun
 might the tale come to an end?
 
 But here is the warrior, 
 strong, true and brave
 still holds steadfast in his stance
 and smiles a queer little smile 
 as if to reassure his ever daunting followers 
 
 The sky turns black, the blood has fallen, 
 rushing into a river, 
 threatening to swallow up the earth 
 
 There in the midst of the battle 
 the hero bellows one last cry into the sky, 
 and plunges his scarlet blade into the
 carcass of his enemy.
 Announcing victory into the sky.
 
 But as all tales must come to an end, 
 the sad truth, dear readers,
 the truth that most cannot bear, 
 is that our hero drew his last breath on that bloody field
 Such is the story of our heroes.
