Betryal

Fire child
Angry spirit of fury
Rise from the northern ashes
Rivers of molten light
Rocks are stained with red
Stars dispersed
Flames licked the sky
Danced around mountain tops

The Beast of Fire
Mountains of eternal Ice
The aurora sparkles
In the northern shores of death
Within me was darkness
Ancient as the earth
A Glimmer of talons
A flutter of wings

My home is forest
My home is Mountain
My shrine is ice
The Starlight is my gaze
Fuming with rage
The light I breathed
Shrank to the size of stars
My teeth are gnashing
My claws are swords
My wings are hurricanes

The Betrayal
Beckoning Me from the shadows
Myriads of arrows are driven home
My blood spatters
Colors the darkness
Brighter than the Aurora
Brighter than the sun
My breath is the wind
Scorching hot
Bloody whispers
When my heart is torn
And I fall from the sky
I explode into shards
of ice and fire
Cover the face of earth
With starlight
Join the night a Star
