Family Matters
I lived my life in the dark
Not knowing the name of my sire,
I travelled with a friendly man
Unaware he was my brother.
We fought together, beat the foe,
But they had planned a surprise:
The foe attacked and then stole him
Right before my very eyes.
I thought him dead, I mourned for him,
But little did I know
That he was learning of things dark,
And would become the foe.
I travelled far, I learnt some things
That would increase me power,
And far away, my cousin was
Coming closer by the hour.
The hour came, and war broke out,
And I was reunited
With my cousin and brother both—
But now, we were divided.
For my brother had become the foe
I fought so war could be won.
But he revealed a secret: that
I was his father's son.
I saw my cousin, he had changed,
And was seeking revenge.
I promised I would help him and
I'd fight until the end.
