The Knights of Days Hence'
I've a tale, a tale to tell, of knights so bold and dungeon hell. And slumber broke upon the shore of nightmare's reef, when dawn no more. A story true of courage lack, and footing lost on virtue's track. And trailing far but near to fear, a vengeance scream through night to ear. The swordsmen came by 2 and 4, to take their fight to evil's core. With confidence in might and right, went bravely forward spreading light. But light alone canst clear the path, when suffers all a hellish wrath. From deep below whence fires came, still none above dare speak the name. Together fought, together fell, till good had won, though stories tell; the cursed tell of treachery when evil stole the victory. Heroes bold, betrayed behind; from friend made foe with gold in mind. To take and plunder riches won, 'Twas evil new, though old undone. In glory slept the hero knights, but knife to throat did snuff the lights behind their eyes, a simple deed. 'Twas honor dead as killed by greed. Strong enough to break a vow, alone with gold he struggled now. To leave his dungeon deed and hide, alone he fell; alone he died. Widows weep and orphans cry; and bards oft sing as maidens sigh. For want of heroes lost below, that haven't in sleep with ghostly glow. On guard they guard eternal stand, though neither see or sense the land. Before their eyes, beyond their age, they wait with unbelieving rage. When 1 for all turns all for 1,the injured souls take solace none. In death's release so stand they will, till honor's need someone dost fill. Together enter; together fall, tis as the vow agreed by all; and all must stand and wait in time, for one that ran to face the crime. I have not been, but have been told; of knights of days gone past so bold. To warrant heartfelt prayers from thee; that rogue's return might set them free. -Baldur's Gate
