I recently had a writing assignment in English, based on Anglo-Saxon epic poems, because we just finished Beowulf. I couldn't think of anything to write about, and the it hit me! Why not the Templars? So, here we go.
Those Noble Few
1 In a time of calamity for humankind
2 There are those brave few who stand against the darkness
3 These protectors of the Star Traders
4 Are the Templar Knights
5 With the memories of their ancestors and
6 Mighty Leviathan suits
7 They go to war to safeguard us
8 Vile Alien, Rogue Star Trader
9 Traitorous cults all fall before their might
10 With the strength of Shalun and his Law
11 They fight back the darkness
12 A Captain with memories from 86 ancestors in his blood
13 Swings his blade, striking at the foe
14 Vile Xeno cut down by the strikes of his blade
15 Terrible claws strike, useless against his shield
16 His companions, Soldiers, fire upon the hordes
17 Keeping the foe at bay while Scouts fly through shadow
18 The roar of the Neptune’s cannon
19 And the heat of the Hydra’s flame
20 The fury of the Berserker's Axe
21 The conviction of the Paladin
22 The skill of the Engineer and his art
23 These are the noble few that stand against the dark
24 They are our bulwark against the Xeno
25 The hordes fall before these noble Knights
26 With fire and steel they fight
27 Every death a loss for the Lineage
28 They know only victory, never defeat
29 They are the Templar Knights
30 With the Captain leading them to war
31 The hordes fall before their mighty wrath
32 They delve deep into the Xeno Hive
33 Leviathan guns roaring and blades
34 Cleaving Xeno in twain, pressing on
35 Beset on all sides by the abominations
36 They press on for only they can succeed
37 As Death Before Dishonor is their creed
38 They seek to save the people of this world
39 Flames crackle, Xeno screech and hiss in the dark
40 Sensors scream as the hordes surround them
41 The Templars push on as only they can
42 In the depths of the vile hive
43 They find the true foe waiting for them
44 “Vae Victus!” “Death Before Dishonor” they yell
45 They charge the Narvidian foe
46 The enemy from before the Exodus
47 Corrupter, subjugator, machine
48 Their blades and bullets cannot pierce its hide
49 The Captain knows what must be done
50 He approaches the enemy
51 Its defenders, Xeno and machine swarm
52 His companions keep them at bay
53 He attacks the Narvidian
54 In the name of Shalun Law and humanity
55 Death Before Dishonor is his final war cry
