Norse Mythology, Return of the Slayer of Dragons

Norse Mythology, Return Of The Slayer Of Dragons ( Part One, Darkness Arrives) I - (THE PLEA) Slayer of weak beasts, ravager of torn breasts Darkness from East, dragons its armored crests What hero dares to slay this foul evil What man may dispatch this tool of the devil? Hell's fires doth burn hot from its massive jaws Innocent red blood drips from its sharp claws Hero, bring thy brave heart - courage made of steel Hope's faith, all it begets in thy iron will. Shall Valhalla send relief - heroic hands Salvation from great beast in weakened lands Doth not their sad cries reach their merciful gods Can avenging warriors smite with lightning rods? Hero! Bring thy sword and armor with dire haste For this foul creature, such dear lives now wastes Blessings on thy travels to their burnt cities For they languish so sad in their deep pities! (Part Two, Odin Sends A Hero) II. - (THE ARRIVAL) From dark skies, ball of fire downward fell From Asgard's vault, landed he in their hell From Thor's loins this invincible form was sown In armored flesh, power never before known Sword fired from Asgard's own best armor makers With Thor's own hammer, still an earth shaker Standing eighteen foot from head to his bare feet Thor's new warrior anything but sickly sweet. With blue eyes and a mind keen as dawn's new lights Courage born from his father's greatest fights Seeing desolation, far as eye could see He had been summoned down to set this world free With sword and hammer obeying Odin's decree Wings formed by Loki, flew he to the sea Found, huge tracks of massive, marauding black beast Blood all about, stripped bones from its bloody feast! ( Part Three, Slayer Finds The Beast) III - (The Battle) Far off, clouds of smoke reveal the beast at play Slayer knew battle coming, he knelt to pray With words sincere, he asked for Odin's favor Strength to beast destroy, victory to savor. As Valhalla's sign sky-fire, showed brightly clear Slayer arrived, to conquer dragon with no fear Beast saw Slayer in armor and keen to fight Charged forth with fire and all its massive might Slayer stepped quick and sent spear into its side A mere nick to sting and burn its fierce pride. Angry beast turned and blew fire upon empty stone Slayer plunged sword hilt deep, hitting dragon bone One mighty leap on its huge scaly back Its vulnerable neck he began to hack. Beast fast rolled left throwing slayer right off Spoke of Slayer's death with arrogant scoff. Slayer laughed out loud and gave a big smile Said, beast you shall die in just a little while With that said, Thor's invincible hammer he threw Dragon received true justice so long overdue! ( Part Four, Slayer Returns Victorious) IV- (Fame, Feasts And Rewards) Death had by Slayer's right hand found its place Slayer relaxed and sighed, with smile on his face With one stroke he cut off mighty dragon's head A hero's final act to prove it truly dead. Victory won, back to Valhalla's great hall Glory found, for answering Odin's call Feast of honor as never had they before Slayer's name sung on Valhalla's every shore Odin gave Slayer castles of solid gold Commanding his tale to forever be told! 5-04-2017
