Armies of Radiance

Another month of nothing from Octaboona has ended. But don't fear! For I've finally written Pyro his poem. And yes I was very nice about you. Enjoy. 


Armies of Radiance

A shadowy figure stands on high
A black silhouette against the crimson sky
Looking down over his teeming armies
As dawn appears in amber brilliance
The deep red orb of a giant sun
Bursts through the horizon
Rays of orange and bronze
Fall upon the Master of the Sands
Pyro Dawn Tyromant. Lord of the Armies of the Desert Sun

A shining being of gleaming copper
With skin of a golden glow
Supreme Eminence over his shifting multitudes
Spirits of sand and men of dust
Forming an unfathomable storm
They strip the moisture from the very air
As their desert realm encroaches upon the plains
At their head a metal deity of amber, bronze and spiralling yellow
A dazzling corona surrounds him
Pyro Dawn Tyromant. Lord of the Armies of the Desert Sun.

A proud and arrogant leader
A Blaze of Radiance
Twin torrents of fire stream from his gauntleted hands
Burning their way through the cerulean heavens
Clouds of crackling white lightning
Rotate far above in a flame filled inferno
And in the epicentre of the power and madness
A tempest of soldiers, sand men, sphinxes
Stretch from coast to coast in a choking cloud
Ready to roll at the will of
Pyro Dawn Tyromant. Lord of the Armies of the Desert Sun.

In the midst of the cacophony
In the heart of the star
In the jaws of the Nightmare Child
Lies the brightest jewel, the bravest man, commander of the dunes
King of the Wilder west
He hovers in his harsh rage filled dreams
An aura of corrosive steam
A halo of plummeting stars
Encircle the god from the core of the earth
Pyro Dawn Tyromant. Lord of the Armies of the Desert Sun.

  4. All at once I heard a tapping
    As of someone gently rapping
    Rapping at my chamber door

    I just realised what you where implying Kallista.

    No I didn't write that. I was quoting Edgar Allen Poe.
