Song: Brave Michael's harvest song

From: Michaelmas festival of Courage

Start song at (1)


Jack instantly jumped in front of Sir Michael and waved his staff around like a baton. (1) "In Autumn brave Michael with sword and with shield, passes over Meadow and Orchard and field."

The minstrel came forward to stand right behind Jack and joined him in the chant. "He's on the path to battle against darkness and strife,He is the fearless warrior protector of life."

The two started walking forward in perfect sync and stuff. Behind them Michael shook his head but did not complain as a young spirit from Scottish myth picked up the next verse. Raising a bowl of freshly harvested veggies and gourds above his head he sang "the harvest let us gather with Brave Michael's light he shed fails not nor does it fade."

One of the Halloween spirits who carried a farming scythe joined the procession. "And when the corn is cut and the Meadows are bare, we'll don brave Michael's armor and onward we'll fare."

Many spirits of all ages, shapes and sizes now marched in a straight parade-like line as Sir Michael and his white horse followed behind. "We are brave Michael's warriors with strong heart and mind, we forge our way through darkness, brave Michael to find. "When the procession made it to the stage everyone coaxed and encouraged until Sir. Michael and his horse stood atop it. "And there he stands in glory, brave Michael, we say. Lead us into battle and show us the way!"

"Speech, Speech, speech!" shouted many voices causing Sir Michael and his horse to laugh and nicker.

"I will make this short, for I know there are many more stories and songs for this festival before night's end. Happy Michaelmas everyone!"


Very short chapter but I wanted to get this song in there as well for Michaelmas is also observed as a harvest and autumn based holiday.
