Saga of Taran Kunan

from the Askenji verses:

Dinan’s first son
Looked out towards
The Great Mountains
Long in the tooth

From high towers
And the strong walls
That Asken’s Kin
Built long ago

Dreaded purpose
Death awaited
Glorious end
Never promised

But Asken’s Kin
Knew of his plight
And joined his search
Graves dug by now

They followed him
Deep into caves
Towards their end
Demons lingered
