Song

"The Manor of Dunshade", by Brealin Forecaster.

"I'd adventured alone for far too long
My only companions my lute and my song
When one bright eve I took an invitation
To chance my soul and eternal salvation."
"The party comprised of the best to be had.
An Empath, a Paladin and a Barbarian lad.
No haler folk could be found in the realm
"My bones in one hand, hanger in the other.
I played the Lilt and thought of my mother.
I prayed she would not receive a summons
To bury my body ripped apart by the dark ones!"
"Drawing a breath to steady my sound,
I asked my friends just where we were bound.
The Barbarian answered with a smile too slow --
Down into the Manor of Dunshade we go!"
"We twisted and turned down hallways so drear'
I hoped I'd notice when the fiends drew near.
And all the while the Barbarian droned --
Down into the Manor of Dunshade we go!"
"Suddenly, we were set upon!
The Barbarian lad burst into song.
The fierce aria of war rang thru the hall
Of my companions and me, not one did fall."
"The Barb himself was like a fiend from hell.
He swung with ease and the death spirits fell.
I tried to advance into the fray
But nothing was left for this Bard to slay."
"At first there were two, then three -- no four!
The spirits kept coming 'til I couldn't count anymore.
The Barbarian just laughed and with a killing grace
Cleared the whole manor of the death spirit race."
"For hours we battled in that dark place
'Twas a warrior's dance with a deadly embrace.
While under my breath I sang soft and low --
Down into the Manor of Dunshade we go!"
"The evening, it ended, as most evenings do,
With laughter and cheer and bit of the brew.
We'd gained quite a profit off the fiends of hell
And one by one we gave our farewells."
"But the memory of that night with me remains
And always I hear the echoing refrain
Of the Barbarian lad with a smile too slow --
Down into the Manor of Dunshade we go!"
"Down into the Manor of Dunshade we go!"

The song ends on a triumphant note.
