The Maiden warned
The Men and Elves
Saved from oblivion
That the Three
Would wake again
When mortal time was done.
Leviathan
Would be the first
To awaken from his sleep,
And with a roar
Of savage power
Would rise up from the deep.
Shaken from
His earth-bound rest,
Behemoth would answer back
Roar for roar,
And blow for blow,
To his brother’s attack.
Ziz, the last
To awake
From her slumber great,
Would loose a cry
Of mournful rage
To see her brothers’ hate.
When those Three rise,
The Maiden warned,
More Men and Elves would die
If they should ever
Forget the song
That brought the beasts to lie.
So that's the final part of
Land, Sea, and Sky. I've started a very tentative revision process, but I'm not making any promises that I'll finish and/or post it. There are also some other short 'in-universe' poems written using this mythology, though as with the revision, they may not be uploaded; I'm still figuring out what with this thread now that the main poem is finished. As for the Monday update slot, I may slide
Sailing the Seven Skies into the vacancy. I dunno; we'll see. That one needs some serious work, too.
Anyways, hope you enjoyed
Land. Sea, and Sky, and if there's any interest in the revised version, let me know.
