This is a collection of the poetry I have been gifted on Royal Road. Um, I have no idea why the formatting is funky only here. I have a file for it available for free on both my Patreon and my Discord
Glossary, Book 1:
Zagaroth's the dragon god,
the creator deity.
Amirume's a kitsune,
granting light for all
to see.
Mericume's another,
goddess of the moon.
Both
will shine in their time,
the world kept in tune.
Sakiya,
like her mother,
took after the golden sun.
So she shares
her passion
to each and every one.
Ozuran walks in
shadow
or mother's soft moonlight.
Guiding the other
path,
walking in the night.
Li Zarb's prone to
chaos.
Danu rules the elves.
Yamaraja's the god of
dead,
the judge upon an end.
Chapter 78:
Thank you for the chapter,
and
the image of a song.
It'll sing inside my mind
for the
whole night long.
Chapter 89:
The mushrooms stood in
glory,
sprouting from the ground.
The people then
inhabited
the mushrooms that they found.
Buildings on the
ceiling.
People moved around.
The quests were scattered
everywhere
seeking to be found!
Chapter 90:
Mordecai planned and
planted,
embedding mushrooms in the ground.
Growing up and
shooting spores,
many dangers could be found.
Chapter 96:
After a day of work,
the two
then sat and lounged.
Sadly, something's missing.
No hot
tub to be found.
Chapter 99:
The lake is a hidden
challenge,
filled up with curious things.
My hope is that
someone finds them,
and then emerges up to sing!
Chapter 114:
In combat, like in music,
timing's
everything.
One minute you are fighting,
then a surge of
water streams.
Chapter 125:
Three moons were high above her
as she drove the wagon
on.
Fuyuko was determined;
a new journey with the dawn.
Chapter 126:
The baron's temper soared aloft
as he heard the news.
Assigning
out specific squads,
he considered follow through.
The
priest was a real problem
who'd only made things worse.
It
was time for him to cooperate
or wind up in the Hearse.
Chapter 127:
The ground level was now forming,
a town rising from the
ground.
It seemed to be hand crafted,
the truth needed to
be found.
Chapter 128:
Our bodies come with downsides,
hunger, fear, and pain.
The
problems drizzle downward
like torrential rain.
Chapter 129:
There ought to be more
fairies
who listen to my tales.
While lacking the
anatomy,
I'm sure we'll get on swell.
There, that's so much
better,
more fairy friends around.
Now I'll teach them of
the bees
and make a visit to the town.
Chapter 130:
A master of reality,
growing
to such heights.
Consuming all within his reach,
he then
changed his sight.
Moving himself elsewhere,
he
began his fun.
Or perhaps he simply vanished
burned up by
the sun.
Chapter 131:
Her territory founded
in
the aftermath of war.
As she expanded outward,
she
encountered more.
Punishing infidelity,
she
slew several cheating men.
That upset a lay priest
who
brought others to upend.
Glossary, Book 2:
So you speak of rabbits.
Here's
a poem for you.
The dire one's the basic,
but they added
magic too.
Then there are the
rabbats,
flying all around.
The bunkin are like
dires,
jumping up and down.
Lastly are the bunnyips,
akin
to otters on the Earth.
For what's life without some whimsy
and
swimming rabbits for some mirth.
