[hometext] => The story/poem of Akuum(Ah-Koom), one of three main antagonists in my D&D campaign in progress of being written.
[bodytext] => Elves dwell on forested lands, in the region's center Humans live triangularly outside those hallowed woods While the elves live lives of peace, joy, and delight in pleasure, The humans seek wealth and power, in every sense of measure Elian was an elf, who brought joy to souls all around, Who had himself a wife, and three children that she bore him His extended family had made a travel, to the outskirts of the woods In efforts to start a settlement, one to call their own For weeks they worked, buildings raised and erected Crops were planted. and herds and flocks were then tended The joyous nature of the elves made this homeland quite grand Everyone loving everyone, and everyone of equal stand Until one night, the dark sky brought winds of change Dropping gleaming burning arrows upon the homes of elves Raiders stampeded in on equine waves of pain Leaving bodies, souls, family and loved ones slain Elian was caught, by an arrow to his eye Whipped with scalding chains, and his skin slashed with blades Clubbed in the head and left for dead, certain to have died But his raging soul like his joyous life, refused to give up hope His spirit clung on, as he lost his worldly self When he came to within a most unworldly plane Encompassed by a black void, and faint mists of dim aether There stood a slender figure, plaster face with charcoal eyes Full-bodied midnight leather, and a black fog from its neck and head An oracle, voice, echo of a god, the God of evil and destruction The echo of that god, granted Elian a second chance And allowed him to survive again, to exact his own revenge But the God of destruction had intentions of its own It sought to kill the lives of men, and even burn all their homes So Elian went forth from embers, burning skin all throughout Slowly decaying along with who he was, for he was now Akuum [comments] => 1 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 31 [informant] => xHeathenx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
