The Ballad of Keld
Before the Veil Fell the kingdoms fought well against a foul foe. Through greif and strife did evil rise, and stretch from door to door.
The horde descends upon the land and dread touched every heart as brother fought brother and child fought mother, struggling hand to hand. With each fallen friend the Enemy did send a new batallion rose. To a hill midst the trees did life's armies flee to rest and make a plan. The temple did stand and Kelemvor's hand held the strife at bay. But a midnight betrayal brought the beast in teh wall and the enemy's horde did grow. Till Keldon the mild strode in to the wild and quieted many lost souls. With the dawn's rise, young Keld found his prize in the wizard Zoreld the Vain. Their battle raged on a full day long and in the sun's setting rays. Zareled drew their last breath, but the curse of his death brought Keld with him to the end.
Purpose
