The Necromancer's Downfall The Bone Army ~ Part Two

~ A Collab between Kelli and MC

**

A romancer at heart

and a scoundrel in nature

This black magic art

became just another wager

Of sin and of death

he held no real allegiance

Always baiting his breath

his intent egregious

Sitting atop that grave

to steal the fate of another

His bone army brave

he swore on the memory of his mother

That night in 1710

a true heart to rule over

He would have it again

as the ultimate controller

Catching lightning in a bottle

to mix in his tea

Though his foe would be hostile

he made this guarantee

Battling good and evil

in the heart of a man

As impossible as threading a needle

but he vowed to honor the plan

Will his goodness prevail

only midnight will tell

When the heart is for sale

on the outskirts of hell
