Galen's poem[edit]

A poem is etched on to Galen's tombstone, the last verses the bard ever wrote, celebrating the might and tragedy of Erdrick:


"A sound so soft as to entrance,
And set the human heart to dance,
Throughout the years,
And though one strum its silver strings,
As west wind bends the boughs of spring,
No fiend appears.

My lyre once summoned wicked things,
The curse now gone, instead it sings,
Of Erdrick's might.
So let its song ring out, and praise,
The hero, who throughout the days,
Did for us fight.

But know this also, Erdrick bold,
Though mighty as in tales of old,
Was human yet.
And suffered as would I or you,
When forced to venture forth and to,
Sweet home forget.

'Neath helm of legend thus was hid,
Great woe, but blade our hero did,
Imbue with hope.
And onward went, and demon slew,
Though homeland lost and all they knew,
Full few could cope.

O Erdrick, hero, bold and brave,
Who did our world from darkness save,
Thy pain I feel.
And so, I take up harp in turn,
And pen these words, that all might learn,
Of thine ordeal."
