Dragon Magic and War

from Merlin, Child of the Merrymoon by Leafblade

/

about

In the firelight,
Near the earth that would not sleep,
Vortigern stared amazed
At the child who moved the earth.

Merlin lashed his tongue,
Assumed a serpent’s pose,
Sang alath here nagrath,
Then the ground below them rose.

In the magic of the hour,
Dawn tinged the sky –
Merlin left the stones
And sang the earth to rest.

A silence, hung, heavy,
Seeping through the camp,
Then the glowing peace was shattered
As a horn pierced the air –

“Ambrosius has mobilised!
Summon all to swords!”
Vortigern madly called to fray,
“Else the bastard shall reap rewards!”

Merlin, deeply tired and worn,
Ran before the chief –
“You of bloodlust, murderous eyes,
For you I have no grief!

“You will die upon this day…”
