June 20, 200422 yr Having just finished reading the Rift War Saga, by Raymond E Fiest, I felt inspired to write a ballad. Below is the first section. Please tell me what you think. Poem of the Valheru Upon a devoid, lifeless land Came a group of beings, soon to disband The heated voices, loud and severe Spoke of lore, long lost to the ear Soon the group was to divide Into those who walk and those who ride Of those who ride, there was but one The most unlikely, a woman. Of stunning beauty, unmatched in grace The calmest, quickest of her race She led those near, yet drew those remote Closer to her neÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢er-ending dote Her father, old and frail for his years The long lost cause of major fears Her father was but one namÃÆÃâÃâéd The long lost Valheru, he once led. Those of the others, few knew lore, Yet all doubted the end of war, As they all knew to pursue, The end of it, peace not undue. Without purpose, they turned outlaws Searching for a long lost cause, To regain their position of masters kin Their lord, the great Draken-Korin. Thus the reason those saw true, To break from the clutches of the new, Order, Calm, both thrown aside, To dream the dreams of those long died. They gathered ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâround the forÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢st they knew, Together they blossomed, yet never grew Long lost powers, they solely dreamÃÆÃâÃâéd The brotherhood had been misled. Below is the actual link to my site on deviantart.com I have some other poems on there you could read. http://hexagons.deviantart.com
June 20, 200422 yr That's real good. I've read the RiftWar Saga at least twice. You've made a nice poem about the Valheru...great job.
June 23, 200422 yr Nice to see some people have good taste :D , if you havnt read the serpent war saga (barring Magician) its probably better than the riftwar i highly recomend it. As is the Mara trilogy, infact just read them all their great 8) . Oh and if you havnt yet, try playing the Betrayal at Krondor game (BAK) its freely downloadable in alot of places and is one of the original and best RPG's of all time, (by genral consent) you can download the zipped package with the 1.02 patch included from http://www.dimwood.net/ also any questions that can be asked about the game can be answered at http://www.hi.is/~eybjorn/krondor/krondor.html enjoy :D
