The Black Paladin
by He Who Is Unnamed
A fleeting shadow, passing by on his steed.
The glint of steel and iron, the glow of two eyes in the moonlight.
The faint sounds of breathing, the beating of a heart echo in the night.
Two men, one clutching a bag of gold, the other bruised and beaten.
The sound of a galloping horse, the sharp noise of steel against an iron scabbard rim.
A faint breeze, gurgling death cries, and a thud.
The sound of a bag hurtling through the air and striking the ground.
The sound of a horse's slow trot begin, turn to gallop, and soon fade.
The eyes glow brightly now, for a brief moment.
The traveler blinks, and collecting himself, heads home.
In the corpse's eyes, the last sight of his life.
Two glowing eyes, dark, brown hair, and a menacing goatee.
The Black Paladin, He-Who-Is-Unnamed , in the night.
Does not divulge his identity, or is it her? But no, the beard is real.
Gleaming silver, iron armor shows from under the black robe.
The shield a dark blue, harbinger of sorrow.
And the next day, the colors change. But the robe remains, the only constant.
A man rides off, a faint smile on his lips.
The Black Paladin has come and gone, a shadow passing by.
A dove soars above, peers down, and swiftly wings through the sky.
