Death Will Coat the Ground in Red.

The armies crash together with a roar.
Scales, fur, and feathers collide.
Claws, teeth and knuckles attack.
Death will coat the ground in red.

The two sides fight, but what is it for?
Jinxes, Skillows, and Phelocans fly.
Quaris, Ziscors and Draklaitas crawl.
Harubas and Cherans race past.
Death will coat the ground in red.

The cries of pain fill the air.
Bones, armor, and weapons break.
Blood, sweat, and spittle drip.
Family, friends and enemies killed.
Death will coat the ground in red.

One side triumphs, but at what cost?
Dead, dying, and injured lay about.
Mourning, anger, and sadness abound.
A grim, cold, ashen field.
And death coated the ground in red.
