It was all hallows eve and the stars they shone bright
Candles burnt brightly under silver moonlight
After feasting on candy, apples and other delights
people slept soundly throughout the night
As witches cackled and ghosts danced around graves
Werewolves howled and for blood vampires craved
As jack o lanterns stared on with a grin
A shadowy figure was prepared to commit sin
He jumped from rooftop to rooftop agile as a cat
Any noise he made was met with "Must've been rats."
He jumped down a chimney with his big sack
But this wasn't Santa it was Shadowy Jack
From shadow to shadow he made his way
Thowing loot in his sack that he'd sell the next day
As quicky as possible without making a sound
He searched every room until Bafford's sceptor he found
He looked at it sparkle in awe of his prize
unfortunately for Jack he just met his demise
As he looked down he saw a blade through his chest
A guard had snuck up behind Jack and he was now lifeless
"Every year we have to do this Dance," a voice said.
"Will you ever accept that you are now dead?"
"Ten years ago on All Hallows Eve"
"You tried to rob Bafford but you did not leave"
"You became careless and you paid a price so dear"
"Unless you accept your fate we'll do this again and I'll see you next year"
Theres a free candy apple for the first person who can tell me which T2

D'ope, thought it was Lampfire Hills, but remembered you said T2. :cheeky:
I've got no idea. But Happy Halloween, Taffsie. ;)
(And nice poem, BTW)

Like the poem but I'm afraid I don't like sweet things so I'll bow out of the guessing. Also, I don't know!

I really enjoyed the content of your poem (aside from your apparently casual disregard for meter!)
It's not "Left for Dead" by Schwaa, is it? I just remember Garrett is dead and trying to come back to life, or something like that... Been years since I played it.

I remember taffers talking about it, but I haven't played it.

Bafford's Curse by Schwaa. If that's it, jolynsbass at least got the author right.
Sir Taffsalot on 1/11/2012 at 15:30
Its inspired by yume no rosen which is a fm for the thief appreciation contest

Hmm, I wouldn't have known that. :p
Well happy belated Hallows eve, everyone. We got a nice poem out of it, at least. No FMs yet, though...
