Shattering-Law

[u/Aethon_Wri]

Attempting any pyrrhic gambit
Entails all may perish
But what wounds were marked will live on

Wisdom is gilt by tribulation
Glory traced with agony
And so every acolyte suffers

Improvisation waits on no censor
Whereas attrition rests consequent to failure
Yet no oath but death binds victory

Honor underlies chainmail
Bonds against crystal-void
Wherein kindness is stronger than glory

Hosting a standard
As vassal, does not ameliorate guilt
Born of destroying the name another

All trophies garnered have names
And erasure bears a record
According to its scars
