With winged flight,
I take to the air.
I soar high above,
without so much a care.

With beaming light,
and rays of sunshine,
I do now serve;
Golden throne, immemorial.

Unvanquished and forever;
I lay upon this rock;
My faith unshaken,
Until I heard Anothers words.

Small and unclean,
without wings,
without grace,
They walk on Earth;

An Earth now cursed.

I see them warring,
I see them screaming;
Burning each other aflame;
I tremble on my stone.

Slowly still;
my unrest grows
into deep affliction.
For I care now;

What will become of us?

At once at this behest;
I hear the trumpet sound.
A great and terrible call;
To arms us mighty with despair.

To slay our children;
We must fight.
To stay their hand,
upon which they deliver blight

to our good green earth.

The chords are struck;
The tune is heard.
from solid rock
to ocean swell,

They tremble before the sound;
The sound of thunder.
Drums;
and a Pale Horse.

Upon landfall hour,
we striketh fast and swift.
Unstoppable, we march,
forward into dawn.

As if rallied by their doom;
they draw string,
and play ill their tune.
At once the arrows fly;

To great are the numbers that die.

Our ranks are broken;
Our wings are spent.
We cared too much,
for the command above,

Has only now forsaken us.

Still we press forward;
There is no retreat.
We come from Fire;

And to fire we shall return.

Without a care in the world.

Woah...
That was epic. I can't believe you got that out of the story!
