The glow of the setting sun engulfed,
The heart of the people on the ground.

A matter of ulterior motive,
Triggered as a heavenly deal.

To accept but a simple truth,
Mankind struggled a lot.

The realm of darkness,
Spread it's clutch over all.

A threat to plunge,
The world into darkness.

Tis was a lonely road,
To embark on,
If you meant to fight the darkness.

As it was,
It was the case.

Humanity ceased the struggle of the army,
The king fell at a great cost.

With no hope in sight,
People fell into despair.

But far away,
An individual set foot,
To walk upon this lonely road.
