Shadow King

In the beginning
before the sun was formed
lived a king who resided in the shadows
this kingly king controlled a vast empire
all the minions lived in servitude
teh mountains even bowed at his presence
the night never ended
and all things that creeped and crawled
loved their king
the demons and wolfs howled constantly
the carnage abound never ceased

then one night an orange glow formed
this was the beginning of the war
the battle between night and day
the king swore to end the war peacefully
the minions and wolfs swore thier allegiance
so the shadow king set the world in motion
to share the power he bestowed upon the world
