Poem
History of the Elder days, up to the Battle of Rose Dawn In the Elder Days, when the world was young Gernot and the Fallen ones attacked the light of Ior. Aki the father would have it nought, and made their work undone Then Arianhod and Havardr waged against Gernot war. Revenge for their sibling, the great ring-giver His shield was made of gilded gold, motifs of Aki the lord His sword now is broken, and he now gives rings no more. So Havardr called the Sunpia, the Elder men of old Those still loyal to their ring-givers family. Of them their was Aghi, Shadow of Terror The last of the Time-Smiths, seeking revenge Against Gernot for slaying his forge-brothers His hammer was mighty, his Odachi like a razor Long and thin, sharp for war. His warriors mounted to thirty strong, all great and strong Then there was Hallr, First of the Sunpia It was he who Aki forged from the stone of Iledreth His Nagamaki was Stone-cutter, sharp as the eagles beak agianst the river fish. His men amounted to a hundred strong, all eager to serve the first born. The Battle of Rose Dawn. The Aeth-Drinker Magni is slayed by Hallr, who then dies from his wounds. Gernot slays Njall the Champion, whose spirit tells Arianhod of the Stone of Mørdrikker They stood above the plane of Rose Dawn, The great army of Havardr stood on high. Then out of Tywyll came Gernot and his horde. Of them was Magni the Aeth-Drinker, a Demon Of the dark, one of the Bearers of a Gamorder, Blades forged by foul Sunpia to drain Aki's spark From its victims. They charged forward, surging like the For-Darni agianst the shoals Magni and Hallr fought, Stone-Cutter agianst the Gamorder Magni stabbed the dark blade into Hallr, the tip driving Deep into the shoulder. Aki's Spark fled Hallr, and his strength fled. With his last gasp he swung Stone-Cutter His blade swung true, and the steel drove deep inside Magni the Foul, and he died. Hallr dropped on the battle-ground, his life ebbing With his last gasp he shattered the foul Gamorder Releasing his spark to return to Aki's fold. Gernot charged into Hallr's broken men All mourning the lost of their Ring-Giver He fought Njall the Champion, greatest of the warriors of Hallr. He fought the foul Sunpia of the South-lands, with his great blade he slayed them. But Gernot the Spear-Crusher tore thru him Like a arrow through air he killed the valiant men But Aki released Njall's Spark, and he appeared On the Rose Dawn he appeared to Arianhod.
