''I Sought the Light, the Hero's Call''

In shadows deep where secrets lie,

A truth awaited, veiled in the guise.

I sought the light, the hero's call,

Yet missed the darkness in the hall.

My friend, my guide, my trusted star,

The villain's gaze, the hidden lies.

The treachery had just begun.

The one I loved, the one I knew,

Wove deception, dark and true.

Now faced with shards of trust and pain,

I see the pattern in the chain.

The hero's path, once clear and strong,

Was tainted by the wrong all along.
