She brought the power
To the walls of his castle,
She brought an army
Of fearless brave men,
He hid behind the walls
It was his prison,
For invoking this war to the end
He had an army of men,
Who were mercenaries
No scruples and very barbaric,
And no faith and no belief
Now the final battle was upon them,
And they could see the fire in her eyes
And she saw the fear that was brewing,
Behind the walls built on this kings lies,
They charged and fully assaulted
The castles on every side,
Riding around it in circles
While a ram beat at the doors to get inside,
They used arrows and burning oil to resist her
But she was a powerful and an immovable force,
She roared at him as the king watched from his tower
Then the doors gave way and the course,
Of the battle changed as they rode into the castle
Like bees they rode in like a swarm,
The fighting was intense and she fought hard
Until the courtyard was just a pile of corpses,
And down came the king from his tower
And he stood before her in his hand he gripped his sword,
He looked deep into her eyes
She was a beauty and she was in full command,
She was a warrior and now a Queen
To her people a Goddess serene,
And now he faced her guilty of brutality,
He had slaughtered many of her people
And butchered her whole family,
But she was unlike him and would not kill him
And she turned, rode away on her horse,
He thought he had got a reprieve
But her army had different thoughts,
She left them to do as they will
And they made sure his blood was spilt,
To pay for the lives of their loved ones
Then they destroyed the castle he built,
She sat on a hillock and viewed this
Clad in her armour, leather, lace and silks,
She meditated on this moment
No desire for anymore kills,
All she wanted now was peace and to be happy
And for her people to feel the same,
She triumphed and now it was over
And gone was her hurt, anger and rage,
And now it was time for healing
And to move into a brand new age,
Of love, compassion and understanding
As her as the Queen of Vale.
