~~3~~

Down, down he sank in the fathomed depths
Prexus' song clamored like timpanis
The maelstrom howled – the beasts awoke from sleep
and turned their keen red eyes on Filbus...

A panther of the water attacked Filbus
In a flash, the reptilian thing had
its maw encompassing our hero's waist
But, Filbus, ever cool, smote the nose

And the shark let him go, for the nose hurts
Filbus cut a long gash on the shark's skin
severing the dorsal fin, which he grabbed
and put in his backpack for a later snack.

The halfling's lungs burned like fire in wind
How many hours, days, had it been?
Since he had drawn a fresh breath.. O' Prexus
Ill-forgotten god, had our hero in his grasp.

With the last might of a dying warrior
Filbus clawed his way to the top of the ocean
He surged from the waters like a great whale
Hours later, a tidal wave would destroy an island town.

And the islanders, perishing, will raise
Their puckered fingers to the indifferent sky
they will weep for their pitiful lives
begging the sea-monster who caused it forgiveness

At last,came the hour of respite!
Not far off, the hero spied a verdant isle
Ringed in colour like Yola's layer cake
Filbus wept as he swam toward the cay

He lit on the shores of the sandy beach
Chewed the water-melons to a pulp
Filled his stomach until he vomited red slime
Fell to his knees in praise of Bristlebane

“Oh My Great God Bristlebane, how ever
Can I please you, now? For it is clear that
You have had a mighty laugh. Pulled a prank
upon your Truest champion!

But now you have delivered me from Terror
And I believe this to be my chance to entreat
Yourself, with my own vows of servitude.
I must make haste!” Filbus cried to no one.

Thus, he raced up toward the island's middle
Upon the way – behold!! A halfling man!
Filbus went to him, fellow being of the 'bane
What ho and good morrow to ye, Filbus Hailed.

The halfling was a deaf mute!! Dumb and blind!
Filbus spat on the ground in great anger
and smote his cousin of the Vale – to death.
The halfling fell, bloodied and helpless – to die.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It was the end of Raotin Teawel
The ancient mariner of the Vale – Chronicler
of cetology and all manners of water-life
it is said that Mrs. Teawel, perceiving
Her late husband's demise – perished, with a babe on the teat.

Filbus noticed the island was populated by Aviaks
not unlike those he commonly slew in Sky
and the halflings hatred for aviaks was great
so he climbed to the top of the mountain

“I will bring Terror to all who stand in my way!”
Filbus declared at the top of his lungs
At the height of the mountain rising from the sea
In the Plane of Fear, Cazic-Thule laughed.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Filbus leaped from the tippy top!
It is said that his feet did not touch ground for hours
That the concussive force of his jump
Made wizards 'round the world forget their hate

With the same titanic force that he propelled
himself, Filbus careened onto the aviak platform
the ground shook under his titanic feet
and the whole world of men bowed in Fear.

Now was the time of Darkness. Now for Fear!
Filbus, O' Saint of Bristlebane, had fallen
from the grace of his Drunken Hobbit God
and Fear commanded his halfling heart.

Like an assassin, Filbus slit the bird's
feathered throat. He clamped his teeth
Upon the aviak's hollowed spine
The bird cried out once – and they fell together.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Filbus calmly dragged the body to a flame
Deposited the bird on the fiery logs
The fat sputtered in the heat – the smell was good
But Filbus had no design to feast...

With red 'round his eyes, he wandered
Slaying all the aviaks of the island
and dragging their bodies to the open fire
whereupon he deposited their corpses

He croaked many guttural, foul things
From the once charming mouth of that
Most revered Halfling warrior.
Finally, there were enough bodies.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Filbus took to a knee before the sacrificial pyre
O', worm of heaven!
He declared, coldly peering 'pon the pyre
O' fat bacon of my deranged heart!

I have heard your laughter, Bristlebane
I know that you have not forgotten me
But you play this prank... for why??
Why lead me to think you are Cazic-Thule?

Is this not most cruel to do?
Against I? Who have so righteously.
and valiantly. And honorably upheld
The merit of your drunken, lecherous name?

The fat in the flames sizzled, popped
Great plumes of waxy black smoke soared
Upon the air like the wings of dead aviak's
Whose children would know not but Terror.

Suddenly beholding the scene of his making
Filbus turned to flee. But he was not
Free of the fire's soot. It wreathed his face
and he levitated from the ground

Surely, Filbus thought to himself,
As he floated away from the island,
purely at the will and whim of wind
Bristlebane will save me now?

~~4~~

At what expense is a fortune won?
How many limbs rot in soggy ditches
As the glutton rots upon his gem pile?
Tell us, O' Cyclops, your worth of solid gold.

The forgotten hero flew over sea
Like a rotund seagull with feet for wings
He danced upon the ocean's foamy face
Like a faerie, that fair, elusive race.

The sun leaped from rim to rim, dancing like
A citrine on a field of sapphire stone
The winds blew cool and strong, propelling our
Hero, the Furyfoot, fast, far, long.

The weary halfling spotted, long at last
the fairest isle that he had seen yet.
It was shaped like a blazing ruby crown
Dotted with emerald rings and sapphires.

He bodysurfed a wave onto the beach
and found he had landed in the footprint
of a giant, primordial beast.
He studied the footprint – a cyclops, ho!
