The onus of discovery alleviated from the eyes

Born in darkness, the hero knows only courage

Robust and vigorous, swift as the titans’ stride

Unto the ailing nations, sworn a protector’s pledge

It is not for the hero to decide

Nor relent against scores to slay

Cleaving paths as righteous men divide

And cunning devils place valor on display.

Everlasting war calls to the valiant

Such glories demand the demise of fated enemies

In blindness, the intrepid one cannot recant

Unable to see the faces of the tyrants he swore to appease.

Cacophonous cries resounding

Triumphant conscripts surrounding

The bellow of broken minds

Injured, beaten, and blind.

Forgotten in the chemical flames

Disfigured countenance in the frame.

All are sightless in the battlefield haze

Such are the benevolent nations’ ways.

The onus of discovery alleviated from the eyes

Born in darkness, the hero knows only death

Stalwart and obedient; adjuration misguides

A legend condemned to destroy until his final breath.
