This is a folk tale so some details were exaggerated as time passed. Also, imagine someone (or yourself) around the campfire with a guitar
.
Oooo, gather around and let me tell you a tale
About a quiet young man in a full suit of mail
He fought with a spear, not a sword or a mace
He wore a blank expression upon his face
He was a driven knight with one robust quest
To be noticed across the land from the east to the west
This silent man with a heart full of gold
Kellam was his name and let his story be told
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, how we loveth thee
O' Kellam O' Kellam, quiet as a tree
His heroic life saved the world from a blight
For a war he did fight in a suit of a knight
May no one forget his name or it would be quite a shame
O' Kellam how we loveth thee.
...
One gloomy night everyone was very tense
Cept a lone man who stood guard next to a white picnic fence
He watched the forest with his eagle eyes
So no Risen would catch them by surprise
He watched for hours without rest
But he never needed sleep because he was the best
He never tired or complained the whole time
He spent the night quieter than a mime
...
He was strong and fearless on the outside
But he wept bitterly on the inside
He had a thirst that he could not quench
There was no cure for this disease, not even a wench
This elusive dream that he wanted the most
To never again be treated like a ghost
To been seen and heard all the time
He wanted to be sublime
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, how we loveth thee
O' Kellam O' Kellam, quiet as a tree
His heroic life saved the world from a blight
For a war he did fight in a suit of a knight
May no one forget his name or it would be quite a shame
O' Kellam how we loveth thee.
...
Red eyes peered through the dark
They cut through the trees and left a big mark
Kellam saw them and did not run from the scene
Instead he grabbed his trusted spear colored in green
He charged at the enemy will all do haste
There were twenty Risen that he faced
Despite these odds there was no fear
He struck at them with his mighty spear
...
The enemy fought back with swords they did wield
But they could not break Kellam's faithful shield
No man or beast could hit this young man
His armor held against the clan
With spear in hand he lunged with a great thrust
Kellam struck back and turned them to dust
Through the fierce battle, only one risen did flee
and Kellam smiled in victory with glee
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, how we loveth thee
O' Kellam O' Kellam, quiet as a tree
His heroic life saved the world from a blight
For a war he did fight in a suit of a knight
He protected his friends in the morning and the night
This legendary man who made the days bright
May no one forget his name or it would be quite a shame
O' Kellam how we loveth thee.
...
Kellam's joy soon turned to fear
For a giant evil beast appeared
He was over 15 feet tall and ugly as can be
Kellam looked in horror as he barely reached its knee
The monster roared and taunted with his axe
It could cut through Kellam like he was made of wax.
His breath had a stench that could kill on its own
He was as hideous from his flesh to the bone
This beast charged at the quiet young man
But Kellam did not waiver, he had a plan
...
He threw his spear with all of his strength
In a desperate hope it could cross the great length
His weapon soared like an arrow in the air
O' its eye he did impair
The monster did groan in a fit of terrible pain
He had been blinded in the eye and it hurt his brain
Kellam smiled thinking the beast had finally been slain
But alas, his attack went in vain.
...
The Goliath soon recovered with a face full of rage
He swung his giant axe and cut the knight like a withered page.
The blow sent Kellam reeling back
He toppled unto the ground and made a loud clack.
Kellam was in pain from his feet to his head
His chest was bleeding as it dyed his skin red
The monster raised his axe in the air once more
But I cannot tell you the rest, it is filled with gore.
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, how we weep for thee
O' Kellam O' Kellam, he lay their in agony
For a war he did fight in a suit of a knight
He protected his friends in the day and the night
He was a man with one robust quest
but now he lay slain with a gash through his chest
O' Kellam how we weep for thee.
...
Oooo, the beast only had one good eye
He did not realize that his death was nigh
Kellam's friends soon joined the fight
They came to aid their beloved loyal knight
The Sheperds had surprise on their side
It was key to turn the tide
...
An arrow stuck the monsters in his last eye
He was in so much pain that he almost cried
The mages rained fire down unto the ground
It hit the monsters face and it was cooked to a golden brown
A cleric teleported one young Lord unto his scarred face
The Falchion cut deep into the brain-case
The monster was defeated by this strong corps
All fifteen feet soon fell to the floor
...
The Shepherds ran to a man who once had a plan
He sacrificed his life to protect his clan
He was able to distract the monster long enough
So the Shepherds could vanquish their foe who was quite tough
...
As Kellam gasped with his last breath
He knew the next moment would be his death
But he did not sulk, instead he smiled fondly
He knew his plan had gone perfectly
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, how we loveth thee
O' Kellam O' Kellam, quiet as a tree
His heroic life saved the world from a blight
For a war he did fight in a suit of a knight
He protected his friends in the day and the night
This legendary man who went towards the white light
May no one forget his name or it would be quite a shame
O' Kellam how we loveth thee
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam
May no one forget your name
O' Kellam O' Kellam
You deserve a share of the fame
...
O' Kellam O' Kellam, We will always loveth thee.
