Warrior

Scarlet embraces the statuesque man
His broadsword hangs at his side
His solitary presence radiates
a strength not to be denied
Unswerving in his strong beliefs
One of word, honor and code
Willingly upon strong shoulders
He will bear the weighty load
He will gladly swear allegiance
pledge his heart and his sword
defend those of his homestone
be they slave, peasant or lord
He will fight against invaders
with the brothers of his Caste
until his blood spills like a river
and the breath taken is his last.
