    And here is, for those who would like to know my style of writing, a poem in my book that relates the events of the dark war.
    Dark War

    Part 1

    Kastos ruled with a peace that none could disturb,
    In that time, the little ones were playing without fear.
    The merchants went to and fro on the many roads,
    For their travels were without lurking threats.
    Justice was almost a word unknown to the Kastosians,
    Such was their righteousness that it was for them natural.
    The joyful song of the fiance traveled along the wind,
    For no song of darkness stood between the lovers.
    In the purest white of the snow she dances,
    In spring’s flowers he smells the perfume.
    In the colored leaves of Fall she advances,
    In the summer’s grass he, too, advances.

    Elzakis was an emperor of grace and of goodness,
    For that, by all he was loved with a genuine love.
    Beautiful was the sword that his right hand would firmly grip,
    For valiant and without fear he was for his people in face of danger.
    Alas! Valour could not avail him against the words of war,
    From the Cursed Land an emperor lusted after domination.
    Elzakis rode for the sake of his people and for the nations,
    His hatred of the cursed creatures forced him to act.
    In the lands of Eikar he challenges the dark and damned creatures,
    In his love for freedom he is risking his own life.
    In the Brown Hills he kills many enemies,
    In his piety and righteousness his golden sword is unsheathed.

    The Kastosians were powerful warriors,
    Such was their heart that they were firm like none other.
    As heroes in fables of ancient lore they were,
    For high and incomparable was their determination.
    Even so, every war, though they may be little, have their sadness,
    And the hero may fall and his wife shed a river of tears.
    Elzakis lost in that fight his brother pierced by a lance,
    And he himself was found wounded and deprived of his sword.
    In the bloody skirmish the kastosian emperor is wounded,
    In the red stained snow lie many man.
    In the weak spot of his cuirass rests an arrow,
    In the trampled and dirty white, many broken weapons.

    The Emperor of Kastos survived though he was injured,
    Heaven's grace had a will to spare him in such dire days.
    But nonetheless, the war did not went better in any ways,
    In the Demiory mountains came evil creatures.
    The shadows in the woods troubled the thoughts and imagination,
    In such times many rumours traveled the lands.
    Unknown enemies attacked the fortifications,
    Their will was to erase every foundations.
    In the mountains the castles are under siege,
    In the sieges come the norvinduntrahïms.
    In the heights mans are defending humanity,
    In the woods are gathering the beings of cruelty.

    We all wish to create, but do we really create?
    What we draw and what we write is part of us.
    No we do not create, we simply discover who we are.
