Vekrid's Journal Part #1

(Stalkers in the Night):

Alone I walk this bitter road.

This path beyond the dawn.

No refuge or place to call my home.

And so I Journey on.

To things untold and things forgot.

Where mortals dare not roam.

Beyond the seas of endless stars.

Beyond the gates to Light.

I feel the creeping watchful eyes,

Of Stalkers in the night.

Breathing softly I draw my sword.

As out of the darkness they creep forth.

I prepare to fight these beasts of sin.

That now surround me closing in.

They leap at me, Instead of run.

I cut them down one by one.

Now I stand beneath the moon.

Basking in its light.

The Beasts retreat into the dark.

It's clear I won the fight.

For seven years I've walked this path.

Defying god's and demon's wrath.

Transcending worlds, Transcending time.

Into the storm I shall ride.

I will not stop.

I will not quit.

So let it be known.

So let it be rite.

Deep within this dark abyss.

Hides a Monster born of sin.

By his birth did all life fade

And by his death shall all be saved.

This war I fight I fight alone.

This is the pain I must own.

This is my destiny, this is my fate,

my gift, my curse I cannot stray.

Vekrid's Journal Part #2

(At Least in My Heart):

All my life I have been forced to wonder.

Always pushing ever onward.

Across countless worlds I have journeyed.

Across their vast mountain and ruined cities.

Their wastelands of slaughter

where oceans of blood flow forth like water.

Looking back now I think I can say

no matter the hardship I will find a way.

Through Love and Acceptance shall all be restored,

for this I will fight and open the door.

At least in my heart I'm never alone

I still have my mother and my love

To help to know I'm not on my own.
