We Must Fight - An Ode in Return

Written by: Kita Kamanda, Kythyryne "Silvertongue" Sah'thyr
Date: Friday, January 23rd, 2009
Addressed to: Everyone


Uneasiness swells in bellies, and howls of laughter erupt,
Seeping into the lives of many does pure ignorance shine,
Watching to strike out, watching to kill unknowingly,
For that which we love, we can not stand by.

The shadows swirl gently, and Syssin move forward,
Quiet and loyal, not just willing to defend, willing to protect,
of Snake and Shadow, run the threat -out-,
The Knowledge of Lord Severn, guiding their blades,
We -will- fight, we -will- fight,
For ignorance is an affliction not easily fixed.

Wind moves through the lands, and Magi hold staves at the ready,
Flamboyant, but strong, they protect and project knowledge yet
unwelcome,
Of stone fist and words of power, purge the ignorance -out-,
The Fist of Lord Galleus, guiding their spells,
We -will- fight, we -will- fight,
For ignorance is an affliction not easily fixed.

Slippered feet sound quietly on stone floors, Cabalists showing
themselves,
Calculated and of the most intelligent, they will defend knowledge to
the death,
Of sly grin, and a mathmatecal grace, bestow intelligence on our foes -
please?
The Favor of Lady Niuri, guiding their entities,
We -will- fight, we -will- fight,
For ignorance is an affliction not easily fixed.

Growls and glowing eyes, the Atabahi are known,
Strong and fierce, a force to be reckoned with, they will protect,
Of wolf and claw and fang, they take the threat in their strong jaws,
The Knowledge of Lord Severn, He strengthens their howls - though they
fall on ignorant ears,
We -will- fight, we -will- fight,
For ignorance is an affliction not easily fixed.

We stand together, banded in the hope that ignorance will leave sentient
thought,
The Guile of Lord Severn, the Strength of Lord Galleus, the Calculated
Mystery of Lady Niuri,
You can not stop us, we will prevail,
For our allies, for our -friends-, for our -family-, for our -CITY-! FOR
OUR GUILDS!

We -will- fight. We -WILL- fight.
For ignorance is an affliction not easily fixed.

Penned by my hand on the 10th of Lanosian, in the year 265 MA.
