The Long Dead Guardian

Braska's guardian, the man in red

Who should be as good as dead

Stalks the land with an untold mission

Fulfilling his friend, Braska's vision

Of keeping his daughter safe from danger

An honourable protecting ranger

One day though his purpose changed

A new mission the aging Guardian gained

Helping Tidus against Sin and it's spawn

This marked a new brighter Spira dawn

Along with mage, a blitzer and a Ronso

There was never a team as strong so

They battling through both fiend and man

The real challenge for the old guy began

Yevon was false, its teachings misleading

So Auron and the gang broke through its preaching

Fought a Maester and his Guado kin

Who wanted to become the next Sin

In a temple covered in snow and ice

They struck him down as he wasn't nice

Fleeing from Guado who were sore and bitter

Proved that Auron's group was fitter

Defeating them and their monster horde

However out the temple even more if them poured

Under the ice of the Great Frozen Lake

Auron waited among the destruction Sin once left in it's wake

It appeared once more and sent them away

To a dry, hot desert far, far away

With the Al Bhed they eventually sided

And embarked on a quest to Bevelle where Seymourrecided

After a battle with Guards and an Unsent

They escaped to the woods to trigger an event

Between Yuna and her youngest friend

The handsome blonde blitzer who was still on the mend

Tidus and Yuna made their love known

Their fate they said was now their own

Auron's story goes on in the fables

As a force that turned the bleak looking tables

Against an enemy that was said to death it was immune

As we learned it's death came quite soon

Living undead our red robed warrior embarks

On a quest to quell the rising dark

In Zanarkand he confronts the one who killed him

But in this instance his hopes are brighter than dim

Killing her gets rid of false hope

Allowing him to easily cope

Perhaps our favourite Guardian will soon at last

Get rest and redemption from his troubled past
