A grim bard's song...

[Gorri]

A crown of Fire
A task most dire
A stranger on the road
The embers they did glow

Words met with unease
A dark task to appease
A tome drenched in blood
With luck a common good

The life of an 'innocent'
To fulfill this sacrement
A rouze by shadow
The chances narrow

A mind cry in the dark
Leads us to the mark
Met with willful brothers
To the lament of mothers

A Blackwell, and a Dain
Unsuspecting, between rains
A fire lurks unseen
Four Blackhands prep'd and keen

An axe, a curse soft spoken
Surprised, a ward left broken
Consumed by fire and might
A pair felled in the night

The bodys lay like trophies
Light of Sundren atrophies
One side of task fulfilled
An oath left lest be killed
