Chapter 2: The Crusader's Oath I

A Ragnarok: The Animation inspired fanfic: poem

A letter written by Roan...

Sometimes I wish I can be a star...

Whenever you are lost

I could be your guide for awhile

For me to lead you to your coast

That I may see you make in your face a faded smile

Sometimes I wish I could be a cloud...

A normal sunny day would make you nap

To regain strength from a trip and be hidden from troubles

If you desire, I'll serve as your personal cap

For you to drift without disturbance into your fables

I always dreamed of becoming your own shield

Despair, tranquility, awe & oppression

Mockery, stranded & betrayal

From these evil traits I may provide you such protection

To have proven myself worthy a knight very loyal

An imaginary gift for me is to become one with the wind...

Running fast, wild and free

Without hesitation & taking out a journey's fee

Catching up to where you are

Will never be a mile too far.

But here I stand as your common companion..

Hundreds of vast lands we crossed together

Bondage & a time of shopping for a crest

In good and bad circumstances, I will utter

That from my only heart, "I love you dearly, priestess!"

A dedication poem to our very own Yufa....
