First poem since...ummm...the last time i posted...a couple months ago maybe?
'Hail duradel, the strongest worship you we shall Command us, mighty duradel and raise the men's morale Task me with a monster so i may prove my worth Slayeth i will man or beast above or below the earth' Duradel reveals his blade and uses this to speak With the blade against my chest he says "you are to weak" Rising to my feet bewildered and ashamed Duradel the Great DISGRACE Now has my heart inflamed 'Deny those who wish to serve you away with the strong such as I Duradel, it is you who is weak fore i've caused the mightiest to die Slayeth i have giants deep within their caves Slayeth i have demons upon the unmarked graves Slayeth i have dragons whose bones i buried deep Lest their fires rise once more and cause the kings to weep I have ventured in the well of smoke to slay the devils of dust And i have climbed the plateau of death to slay the trolls of disgust I have flown with the distant gnomes to slay the brutal apes I have slain mightiest of foes amongst the roughest landscapes What say you, Duradel the weakest of the weak What makes you so fucking great? defend yourself and speak!' Duredal, withdraws his blade and stands like a man of stone "I have slain the Kalphite Queen with this blade and all alone" 'Hail Duradel, the strongest worship you i shall command me not, fore i'm to weak but still to you i bow'

A few tempo issues, especially in the middle, but quite entertaining. I especially liked the last two stanzas.

Really, really awesome. Is Duradel a character you just came up with off the top of your head?

Actually, Duradel is an NPC in Runescape. There is a skill on the game called Slayer. To train your slayer, you have to talk to a Slayer Master. They will give you a task, such as "kill 100 blue dragons" and as you kill the blue dragons you will gain experience. Duradel is the highest Slayer Master in the game, who offers the hardest tasks. I'm pretty well known amongst my friends for my slayer level, i love doing it. I thought i would be strong enough for Duradel a week or so ago, so i went to him and asked for a task, but it told me i wasn't strong enough. This is kind of an elaboration of that. I think this pretty much proves how much of a loser i am though. Edit- Oh, and as for the Kalphite Queen, it's the strongest monster in Runescape. Its to strong to fight alone, the only way to kill it is to team up with a few friends...and then its still likely you'll die.
