The Hero's Call



In realms where legends rise and fall,
There echoes out the hero's call.
A whisper soft yet firm and clear,
A summons to those who dare to steer.

Through shadowed valleys, darkened night,
The hero's heart, a beacon bright.
With courage forged in fires deep,
They rise from slumber, from silent sleep.

For heroes heed the call within,
To face the trials, to fight and win.
With valor as their guiding star,
They journey forth, no matter how far.

In lands where evil holds its sway,
The hero's sword will light the way.
They stand against the tide of fear,
With every step, their purpose clear.

Through trials dire, they press ahead,
No foe too fierce, no path unwed.
For destiny has marked their name,
To claim their place in the hall of fame.

And though the road may twist and bend,
The hero's spirit will not end.
For in their heart burns courage bold,
A flame that cannot be controlled.

So heed the call, oh valiant soul,
Let courage be your only goal.
For in the face of darkness' thrall,
You'll rise triumphant to the hero's call.
