Note: This haiku is dedicated to Da Ji, an original character from Warriors Orochi. She happens to be a malevolent deity who freed Orochi from his eternal prison just to see how much chaos he would cause. By the way, this game is owned by Koei. It does not belong to me.


Playground of Mayhem

The demon troops marched,
Bringing carnage and despair,
In the serpent's name.

Right next to the snake,
Adorned with silk and satin,
Was the nine-tailed fox.

Her beguiling ways,
Once led a great dynasty,
To utter ruin.

The gods despised her,
For arousing the serpent,
From his deep slumber.

Her lust for chaos,
Rivaled the snake's thirst for blood,
As both searched for more.

This distorted world,
Was merely a dark playground,
For her amusement.


Note: Some of the verses here allude to Da Ji's own past, which isn't exactly spotless to say the least. If you're interested in learning more about her story, you can try looking it up on a Chinese novel called Fengshen Yanyi (The Investiture of The Gods).
