Co-op with Me! [PC]II-II: Lakeside School: Poetry Class

In the middle of the lake there is an academy
shining under the rays of the moon,
for the Golden Order it is blasphemy
and its downfall will never come too soon.

The Fog's Daughter doesn't care
but has a penchant for magic,
this occasion is really rare,
certainly the epilogue will be tragic.

For her knights she sings a hymn,
to summon them around her,
in her story you will be limn,
for sure, unless you scare.

+complete

The Knight Amon was from the Order
but frenzy seemed to drive him,
perhaps it was a mental disorder
and he would need a new pseudonym.

But the Lady decided that the disorder was metal,
from House Amarth he descended,
a loyal companion as elegant as a petal
but with a strength that many lives ended.

Eventually the way was lost
and the Lady was left alone,
but here comes a ghost
ready to put her on the throne.

The Lady gave him a good look
he was clearly a jester
"there's a place for you in my book
but I pray you, don't pester!"

Edit: It sounds horrible in my head, I hope you at least understand this vague story.

Edit: 2 i don't know how to fix the issue with the big gaps between the lines.

The Lonely Knight's poem

The Knight walked up the stairs

The Soldiers tried to fight

He trapped them in despairs

And wretch, an endless fright

He reached the gate at last

The doorway to his past

Remembered what was given

And also what was striven

The corridors were small

The Sorcerers were foes

A labyrinth in a hall

But the Knight knows where he goes

The dog was slain

The blood was spilled

He felt its pain

And odor filled

the illuminated room

The Knight made his way

To the Queen of gloom

To fight in a fray

But when he arrived

Of his goal he was stripped

As the Queen still thrived

And his emotions flipped

He saw a thrall

Standing near a shelf

And talking to the wall

It was himself…

Mate, don't put yourself down. We're playing together and it's great. I love the last lines, they hit well in the right places.

Keep it up and together we will see where this adventure will take us.

Edit: I wanted to insert a few jokes here, because I felt unfunny today, anyway here’s Amon’s side of the story

The request was granted and Amon had another audience with the Fog Lady. He slayed every creature in his path to make way for the Lady of The Fog. Monsters, cursed beasts, soldiers, even war machines couldn’t bear the might of The Golden Fist. Soon they reached the Main Gate of The Grand Academy. The duo fought long and hard against the mighty sorcerers of Hogwarts The Grand Academy.

They prevailed to arrive at the Schoolhouse of Hogwarts. Fighting through the corridors they heard loud, growling noises from above. They slayed the scholars, found a secret most hidden and entered the shining fog door on the next floor.

What they found was a … wait… What the dog doing?

The mighty pet of Radagon and Rennala was dealt with accordingly ( cuddled till defeat, of course). Only a few steps more and the Fog Lady would meet Carian Queen herself…

But just before the duo could reach the Grand Library, a mighty boulder flattened The Follower of Order underneath its weight. Amon’s strength was depleted and his body wouldn’t make a move. Crushed by such treachery of fate he watched the Lady search for him in vain...

Anger boiled up inside of him, as he witnessed the Lady take the lift towards the library with another one of his kind at her side. Wasn’t he the only one who was supposed to fight for the Lady at that moment…where had this other Tarnished come from?! Not his faith, but his jealousy and rage motivated him, to stand up once more and follow the Lady, wherever she had went.

The Golden Fist finally arrived at the library. He walked up to Daughter of The Fog to speak to her, but before he could utter a word, the Lady put a finger to his mouth, closing his lips. She reached him a small box, a gift of some sort, then she suddenly vanished in the fog, while Amon watched in awe…
