Adieu false Idols

Location

What is the world if not a mere collection of memories?

Some which last a lifetime and others legions

But which of these memories are now treacheries

Lost and forsaken across all regions

Nay! Only the victorious live immortally

Scrolls and scrolls of glorious victories by virtuous kingdoms.

The arms of Rome rally

Destroying all opposing freedoms

Will Julius Caesar have mercy to spare thy lives?

Nay I Say! Destiny was written by the gods,

Invaders and conquerors of ancient times

Yet out ancestors were told lies

Against all odds true heroes are those untold on poems and rhymes 

Who against all odds fought and lost their land.
