The Day of Delfaras

[dragonwyst]

This is specially for Jerry (SpaceMonkey)
 The Day of Delfaras The cry went forth across the land:  Delfaras in despair!The mighty RM Guild had come to wreak it's vengeance there. And all the people wailed and fled before that cruel tide.But Skorg stood firm, the mighty Orc, and forth he bid us ride. We rode that day from near and far, o'er desert, hill and vale.And Skorg declared the battle terms for honor to prevail. The air was filled with rasp of steel as weapons were made readyAnd incantations round us laid to keep intention steady. The moment had arrived at last, a time of reckoningWith fearsome clash of sword and shield, with arrow's deadly zing. But RM held us off at first, and oh, my heart did quailSkorg held us firm, and spurning fear, he bid us all prevail. The battle raged and we gained ground against the enemy, And hope had dawned within my heart; Delfaras would be free. Yet even as that hope had dawned, too quickly was it quenchedAs RM spurned the honor terms and victory from us wrenched. The force unleashed from RM Guild was more than we could standBut still we fought with strength and zeal against that evil hand. We did not win the final push, but damage dealt to allWho stood against us. Soon, my friend, yea, soon we'll see them fall. Hail to the mighty DOA, a Guild with honor brightWho hold the world of Chantra dear and win the greater fight.
