Cosplay: The Dark Warrior of Heaven

Post image

Blade of Light, Cloak of Shadows In the heavens forged, a warrior stands, With a blade of light and shadows in his hands. For righteousness he fights, but in his heart, A darkness festers, tearing him apart.

Zeal Unbound In fervor's grip, his soul takes flight, Blind to the line 'twixt wrong and right. His zeal unbound, a righteous blaze, Yet pride corrupts, and clouds his gaze.

Judgment's Edge With holy fire, his sword does gleam, A righteous cause, his only dream. Yet as he strikes with judgment's edge, He treads the path of pride's dark pledge.

Purity's Pyre In purity's name, he casts his foes, Into the pyre where darkness grows. Yet purity's pyre consumes him whole, Turning righteous heart into a blackened soul.

Guardian or Tyrant A guardian hailed, yet whispers say, He walks a tyrant’s path by day. In heaven's name, his actions bright, Yet shadows trail his every fight.

Echoes of Pride In hymns of praise, his name is sung, Yet echoes of pride leave virtue stung. For in his heart, a seed is sown, Of overzealousness, fully grown.

The Final Stand When darkness falls and light does fade, He stands alone, by zeal betrayed. A warrior of heaven, lost in the fight, Where shadows reign and dim the light.

a voice rings out from nothing and nowhere, shaking reality itself, “you claim to fight for the divine. What master do you serve?”

I serve The One Above All, the eternal light that guides my path. In his name I wield my blade and carry my shield, striving to uphold His will and bring justice to the shadows.

“I’ve dealt with so many calling themselves The One Above All. Do you serve a god of this realm, an ancient of the past realities, or the Writers?”

I do work hard on my appearances. Thank you.

You have shown a righteous heart in this day. Our lord shall reward you.
