Sir Elrich! Hubris suits you

Poorly, the ringleader speaks,
His dagger is at the girl's neck.
"Where is your company?
Your brothers in arms ran
In fear from the Aeberholt's Scourge?"
Sir Elrich draws his sword,
Tosses the scabbard aside.
He measures his foes up,
And replies with a smirk:


"My company is finishing off
The first figure is clad in white and blue, its chin and lips are colored in red, the hands are wrapped in red ribbon.
The rest of your godless band.
Put down your weapon,
Or the Host be my witness,
I'll end you." The leader laughs
In his arrogance: "For your impudence


The first one to pay is the innocent.”
Priest (solemnly):


One slice, and the blood gushes out
-Tell me, o wretch, why were you murdered?
From the cut in the neck. The knight is blinded
With fury, thirsting for payback. A bow
Is barely drawn when sir Elrich
Sends the archer's head flying
WIth one swing. He charges at another.
One by one in the chaos of battle
The villains are bested.


Terror and fear. The Death is
Dead man (monotonously):
Approaching. The ringleader,
Dastardly Treban, the Aeberholt's Scourge,
In vain he raises his shield.
With a short, feinted swing
Sir Elrich's blade cuts at his arm,
Then chops off his head.
