The Bloodwrath

 

By 

Foxpiper

 

Crimson mist shrouded the Badger Lord's eyes,  
 Guttural growls emanated from deep within;  
 Raising his sword toward somber skies,  
 A brutal bloodbath was about to begin.

Charging towards vermin with a hellish roar,  
 His blade sliced into fur and flesh with ease;  
 Through battered bones and ligaments he tore,  
 Spreading fear throughout all like a deadly disease.

Blood fell like rain amongst the slaughter,  
 For foebeasts' bodies the badger did sever;  
 No vermin could evade the maniacal marauder,  
 Thus sealing their miserable fates forever.

No battling creature was left unscathed,  
 Endless entrails covered the blood-stained grounds;  
 Twas the work of the demented and depraved,  
 Sated by screams and other horrific sounds.

The Badger Lord surveyed what he had done,  
 Sheathing his sword as a final gesture;  
 Trudging over those whose lives were now gone,  
 Left only to rot, decay, and fester.

Badgers can never escape the Bloodwrath's will,  
 Plunging them into inevitable insanity;  
 Thus driven to maim, mutilate, and kill,  
 Leaving them devoid of all humanity.
