Morgana the Clewinder Warrior
Clanging of metal disturbed her and her she-wolf in no way
Morgana was a Clewinder warrior and ready for the task
Her unborn children lay asleep deeply within her womb
She could not think of them now, took a swig from flask.
The archers were summoned next, they took out dozens.
It was a battle worth seeing, made Morgana feel powerful and smart.
She was in her prime, ripe for marriage, twenty-eight moons gone.
Ready to fight, her prowess known among the troops of her heart.
Are you ready? Her father asked. Of course he knew the answer.
Born a warrior, she would happily die a warrior, his daughter-son.
We fought hard that day, swiftly slashing and killing the enemy.
His last earth memory was of Morgana and her she-wolf Denemy.
