All right, I've decided to give a Sword of Mana fic a try. Well... it's
actually a poem in a character's point of view. Which character? Ah! That's
part of the fun! I'm not saying...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*~* A Righteous Purpose *~*
Who was it that decided that villains are conniving?
We, too, have reasons for which we are thriving.
I never chose the image of power and fame,
To whom to I have this impression to blame?
~~~~~
Is it because of the race that I am?
Or because my family has harmed the Mana clan?
I cannot be accused for the family I'm born into,
When returning things to normal is all I wish to do.
~~~~~
"Beware the manor of that evil Mavole!
Goddess only knows, he could steal your soul!"
Judging me without knowing my past.
Forming opinions far too fast.
~~~~~
If only they knew the hardships we met...
If only they saw the cold stares we get.
The life that my mother and I have lived,
They just cannot see the care that we give.
~~~~~
Different races hold different faiths,
Different groups call different things 'safe'.
I, the Mavole, fight for my mother's sake.
I, the villain, in darkness partake.
~~~~~
I helped the 'heroes' continue their quest,
And in the end... I received death.
Just for wanting to save those I care for...
I watch the world choose the wrong door.
~~~~~
I would save them if I could,
But it seems my motive was misunderstood.
Behind a villain's evil surface,
Dwells a sincere and righteous purpose.
.....................
I am that villain...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
OK, it's rather obvious as to who it is. ^^ But, oh well! This was my first attempt at poetry so I'd really appreciate some feedback on it! Thanks! Who knows? Maybe I'll write another poem based on another SoM character at some point...
