The Ravager of Redemption

Ravage and pillage the village did he
This savage was a horror for all to see
Born with power, and capable of nothing but to tower
To grow and prosper into a menacing monster
Now he comes of age and begins a new page
His rule of tyranny will be ended by an epiphany
A vision in his dreams, a vision of a dream
A dream of peace and might within his sight, no blood or ruin to be seen
This savage who could only ravage awakes to greet his servants as equals
The monster awakes, shakes his head, and continues to empower the dead
