A Jedi Xmas
by Elixir
Twas’ the hour before reboot, and all through the mud
Not a mortal was runnin’, not even the ‘Stud’
Hoardes of pet equipment were quickly stowed that day
In fears a crash would take it away
The newbies were restless and ready to group
But the Fossils and clannies quickly ‘flew the coup’
With a beer and some nachos I KNEW I was set,
For a high-powered evening of clicking telnet
With ample warning from Kailyn the game was shut down
And the loads upon reboots made everyone frown
But something was different, as everyone could see
Tiny elves roamed the land with presents for ME!!
Arizhel and her team had worked hard on this quest
In attempts to make Xmas at Jedi the best.
Uki and Mantra were not morting in seemed…
One wonders what grinchish plans they have schemed
Would the elves be queen horrors
Would the reindeer be snorting (Uki tm)
With changes like these
Much equipment we’d be sorting!!
But alas, elves were weak and we started to slay
Corpses of present holders mounted quickly that day.
Mid-day I rested to clean blood off my sword
While rumors abounded of a snowman lord.
I raced towards Midgaard with my presents in tow
And was met by a giant made entirely of snow!
In spite of the rumors he was really quite jolly
On his head was a Top hat surrounded by holly.
Frosty smiled as he spoke and his breath smelled of mint
Our group pondered his words and looked hard for a hint
To what all these items from presents might yield
It could be boots, or armor, or some kind of new shield!
Curiosity overwhelmed us and we engaged this cold beast
With some sugar and milk we’d make ice cream at least.
Frosty fought valiantly not once but two times
And after the battles I refocused on rhymes.
Run mortals RUN! Run fast and with cheer
And know that Santa’s helper Uki is near
To award us great prizes and spread holiday love
Straight to us ‘morts’ from the godly realms above.
To the Imm’s and the Mortals and all those we hold dear
Merry Christmas to all, we’ve had a great year!
