The Twin Ascension
The Ballad of the Twin Ascension
In ages old when earth was young, When gods were but the whispered songs, There danced a tale of war and peace, A clash of might that fate prolongs. From Bludgrott’s clan of blood and fire, Rose Amalar with burning ire, A Warchief fierce with rage profound, Whose wrath would shake the heavens' bound. Exiled by his father’s hand, For a brother’s death, unjustly planned, He forged a path through blood and flame, To reclaim his right and fame. His army vast, his heart a blaze, He conquered lands in ruthless ways, Till ‘neath the skies of war’s dark shroud, He faced the peace of which he’d vowed. In fields of strife where shadows fought, The God of Peace, the world had sought, Stood Sein, whose heart was strong and true, To guard the calm where blossoms grew. Their duel was fierce, the earth did quake, In clash of wills, the heavens shake, Amalar's blade with might was drawn, To meet the peace of morning’s dawn. In that final stroke, the cosmos roared, As two divine ascensions soared, Amalar, with fury’s rage, Transformed to War’s eternal sage. Sein, though fallen, rose to light, A beacon in the endless night, From mortal breath to divine grace, He took his place in Heaven’s space. The Eternal Battlefield did claim, The Warchief’s heart with war’s acclaim, Where legions march and chaos reigns, In endless strife and blood-stained plains. Sanctuary’s fields, so calm and bright, Became the realm of Peace’s light, Where souls of virtue find their rest, In tranquil halls, forever blessed. Oh, Amalar and Sein, the gods entwined, In endless dance of dark and kind, Your story echoes through the ages, In war’s cruel storms and peace’s pages. So sing, O bards, of this great tale, Of gods whose clash did shake the veil, Of Amalar’s rage and Sein’s serene, The eternal struggle, ever seen. In balance held, the heavens sway, War and Peace in grand display, Their legends live in song and lore, A timeless dance, forevermore.Summary
In ancient times, when the world was still young and the gods were newly born, a pivotal clash shaped the destiny of gods and mortals alike. Amalar, a fierce Warchief from the Bludgrott clan, rose to power through violence and bloodshed. Exiled by his father for the unjust murder of his elder brother, Amalar sought to prove his worth and reclaim his rightful place. His rage and relentless ambition led him to wage war across the lands, gathering a vast and fearsome army.
In contrast, Sein, a humble and noble guardian of peace, stood as the beacon of serenity in a world increasingly consumed by conflict. As Amalar’s forces encroached upon his realm, Sein vowed to protect the peace he cherished.
Their inevitable confrontation was both epic and fateful. In a climactic battle, Amalar struck Sein down, an act that simultaneously marked their ascension to divine status. Amalar, transformed by his fury, became the God of War, presiding over the Eternal Battlefield, a realm of perpetual conflict and chaos. Meanwhile, Sein, despite his mortal end, ascended to become the God of Peace. His new domain, Sanctuary, became a haven of eternal tranquility and solace.
Thus, Amalar and Sein were forever bound in their divine roles, embodying the eternal struggle between war and peace. Their stories are celebrated as symbols of the perpetual balance between chaos and harmony in the cosmos.
