The Curse of Cadbury Castle : Halloween contest
[In a smokey tavern where adventurers and commoners alike gather for tasty beverages a man with a grey beard walks in with a lute : a few heads turn as he enters and the barkeep recognizes him nodding politely]
[After setting himself up in a corner he begins to play his lute and sings of a tale from long ago one stormy Halloween night
in the Fiefdom of Cadbury]
[Strums the lute and sings in tune running his finger along the lute with precision the tone rising and lowering with each verse]
Twas long ago a Hero came many were slain that stormy night in Cadbury Fief ,
The undead raised and magic blazed as they battled that night from long ago , ......[runs a finger across the lute]
Many were slain they cried in pain bones were broke in blood the ground did soak , ....[strums] [strums]
Till one remained Torgoth was his name with his mighty Arbalester he did take aim ..... [strums slowly]
Striking true his bolt flew striking the leader of the blood seekers ....[runs a finger accross the lute twice]
Lightning crackled across the sky as rivers of blue turned to a red hue that fateful night in Cadbury Fief ....[runs finger very slowly accross the lute]
The vampires knew the soldiers were few left all but one who's Arbalester weighed a ton ,
Torgoth waved his fist and did not resist killing them one by one but they numbered a ton [tone lowers] , [strums]
when from the mist did he hear a hiss the priestess Vriss ...he swung around but fell to the ground ! ,
She pounced upon him her stench was rotten as vampires circled around Torgoth on the Ground , [quick strumming to slow]
In the guttural tongue there was magic done as vampires feasted upon ....Torgoths End had Come .....[slow strumming]
And to this day where the castle laid and Halloween does come ....some may run ...some may come .......[strums three times] .
When darkness falls and the midnight hour calls his spirit can be seen by those who dare venture the Cadbury Castle Scene .....[strums once]
Arbalester in hand remaining on guard a true hero says this bard ! ...[high pitched strum into a flowing deep tone]
[the tavern was silent and a single gold coin hit the ground : and the crowd]
