The Song of broken Friendships and Betrayal's flame

It's a poem inspired by an online game; my friends and our stories

 

 

As we are a good guild with Warning as a name

We are building, with love, our future and fame

Yet some of our friends remain banished for now

Still trying to drive away evil voices somehow

Though they are not angels, nor saints or ascetic

They have all been affected by a dark heretic

So sit down and listen to this story from our online game

In this Song of broken Friendships and Betrayals’ flame

It started aeons ago when Eidolons fell apart

Most of us were leaving with a broken heart

Yet we knew that it was better than endless leader change

Because after lady Nuo left, things became toxic and strange

She needed to go and, if you need an explanation

Her father and family needed immediate attention

Still, not everybody could comprehend Nuo’s feelings and stress

I will tell you this person’s name, you don’t have to guess

Ava the Guild Mother felt insulted and betrayed

But no one could predict the game that is going to be played

After the Eidolons became Shards of Haven

We were joined by Kenz with hair as black as raven

Shrimp and Aya soon joined too they became loyal members

Yet, there was still a strange story around that each of them remembers

Ava back as a leader full of pride and hidden grudge

Tried to malign Nuonii giving her, in stories, a vicious traitor “badge”

As the one who was the culprit, the nightmare, the offender

The worst ravager, and Belmorn’s Shadow Knight Defender.

The people who rejoined the Guild tried to soften that story

Saying that Ava overexaggerated and that she should be sorry

Yet Ava felt offended “How they can think I am wrong”

And for another drama we did not have to wait long

Ava soon became tired of leadership and wanted to quit 

Yet, our current guild friends did not like that a bit

So, Shrimpy took incentive and became our new king

Still not long after that, there happened a new weird thing

Ava wanted back the lead, demanding it in heat

we were all surprised, that caught us off the beat

After disagreements who should remain on the throne

Ava got the crown and Shrimp got overthrown

Then things got silent for some time, the people made up too

But that’s not the end of the story, do not worry I have more for you

At the same time the Warning guild grew stronger

They didn’t know that in Shards there is a silent warmonger

As a Bard I was welcome in many courts

more as a friend or diplomat of sorts

I said that all of Warning people are welcome in our new guild

That they will be welcomed with open arms not with sword nor shield

Since Ava said “ Don’t care” I invited Nuo as well

I would never expect that the things will go to hell

Sometime after Nuo joined the atmosphere got tense

I do not know whether it was luck or my sixth sense

But I knew it was Ava, that something was not right

I tried to calm her down, and do what I could in my might

She wanted to give up leading, for her real life’s sake

I signed up to take over the lead, but that was a mistake

I could not lead and spend time in game

 So I gave my lead to Sima, I think that was his name

He kicked most of our players

Extinction of the Guild was certain, despite all of our prayers

Guild got renamed to Pheonix Flame

With hopes of bringing people to PvP, cash and fame

The guild has failed awfully, the toxicity grew stronger

Because even the Bard and Simba could not take this any longer

Our homeland was stolen, all efforts and good time

Our promises have been broken and thrown to dirt and grime

Now Bard and Simba in guild of Pristine phantom grew

Because, they thought it is better to start something new

Than stick to toxic homeland with no hopes to repair

But it was not the end of their in-game despair

They saw Pheonix Flame dying out slowly with even Ava leaving

And boys took over the guild, but they were still far from forgiving

The players of course, that made it a wreck

Bard thought it was over, but old Eidos remained a pain in the neck.

Though Simba’s and Bard’s guild was small

It was prospering well, as it was open to all

Ava, El and Sima were gone

and signs of them ever coming back were none

Too bad that life is too full of surprises

When one problem ends, another one just rises

Guild soon had died silently due to Simba’s leave

Real life was the matter, in this I still believe

All the people left, except for just one Bard

And what you might have guessed, he took it pretty hard

Still in his sadness he found a new objective

To keep the guild safe, with relaunch perspective

And then the calm period started or so the Bard has thought

Because for new drama was about to be brought

You guessed it by now

It was Ava’s thing to start drama somehow

She went to other game, with Sima and El

Played it also with Kenz, and started a new hell

She manipulated El and then made Kenz look bad

Then fooled Sima irl, which sounds really sad

When confronted by Bard, with screenshots as proof

Whole drama levels when on through the roof

She blamed the Bard for stressing her with this

That the way he acted is something that she won’t ever miss

And she ghosted him severing the ties

Then took away Kenz’s best friend, enticing him with lies

Yet, worst thing for a Bard was this 

That Ava blamed Bard for killing the guild, that all the fault was his

That alongside Nuo, he convinced people to turn on Ava as guild’s boss

Never seeing that her indecisiveness and drama making was what put her at loss

And now my dear reader you know why this lady got such a nasty fame

Through this Song of broken Friendships and Betrayals’ flame.
