To Our Emperor

The Numerical Code


Oh thy wizard that sees in number codes
your magic has the scent your powers well known
Gathered in groups of one… two… three and four
you battled Katarein's minions to the floor

The bloody magic has made such an illusion
you had to include yourself in conclusion
Have the artifacts survived many a war
Or dwindled in size
for your magic to mourn

When the clash of war, brought the minions down
Your magic was as ever resound
Katarein thought that she had won
there was one thing long lost, and poorly fought
That one little artifact she sought


Her robes swirled in reds, gold and black
only to get the artifact back.
Raising her hand up to the skies
she proclaims that one artifact was hers to find
Can it be a dulling of her magic code
or the wrath of losing what she could not hold


She used her fellow magi well
they fought beside her and soon fell
Numbers yes; that one word she honored so
became one less, than eight, and nine to go
Her magi's disappeared by death’s hand
and she was the only one left to stand

The quiver of her lips and sparkle in her eyes
did not forget the one artifact in the tombs did lie
She went on, and on to finally find,
Number one, eight, and nine.

Be it rumor or the truth there is one more to find
have you heard the names of one, eight, or nine?
Whispered names will caress your ears to only learn
one is Garnal, eight is Darien, and the nine is Forlern

A rusty sword may point the way,
be careful not… to stray.
Tis near you; so close the magic may find its way


To find the number one, eight or nine,
You will need to think in rhyme
For you search so close to your hand
The artifact sharply cuts the band

You can not choose your path or search,
The artifact is beside you on a perch
Emperor when you send your guards
Look up towards the tree with much regard

Remember the numbers eight and nine,
Make sure your guards can think in rhyme
With no magic by their side
Up above counting they will find


One by eight by nine, is that a rhyme?
It is the artifact... of health you will find
