Andre

A bastard son of Gwynevere

Was born under a shrouded veil

Fathered by Astoran heir

None were told his dawning tale

Was named Andre by an uncle

Whom held him dear as sun

Grew to be a skilled blacksmith

Crafting weapons of his kith

In Anor Londo he resided

Forging weapons along a giant

But when his uncle's name expelled

He left his home without a tell

He found a new home in a church

Crafting kit for passers by

He met all manner of undead

Though one stood out, he knew not why

He offered them his greatest council

And forged their gear each time they came

When news came of his granddad's death

He knew which undead was to blame

He bore witness to many lifetimes after that

Saw kingdoms rise and fall with time

Met countless undead set to link the flame

Or let it fade and become tame

Until he found self at a shrine

Where outside worlds converged and twisted

Another undead caught his eye

This one of ash was truly gifted

Reminded him of brave of yore

Who feigned comradery and slayed his kin

But 'twas many lifetimes before

Those memories all but long forgotten

And though this one's set on same path

This time to slay the Lords of Cinder

A humble blacksmith Andre remains

Will duly serve until his last
