The Ballad of the Imprisoning War
                                         by Casey Floyd

                  The sky was dark,
                  Dark and dreary,grim and
                  grey,
                  When the Great Seal broke,
                  And the evil came.

                  The bridges were lowered,
                  Weapons were raised
                  Soldiers stood ready
                  On that great, fateful day.

                  Ganon broke loose
                  From the land of his making,
                  And with darkened powers,
                  Hyrule was his for the
                  taking.

                  But all was not lost
                  For the knights were brave
                  They'd defend their Triforce,
                  'Till they were sent to their
                  grave.

                  The battle was fought, then,
                  And many a soul was lost,
                  It was not in vain, though
                  Victory was won,but at a
                  cost.

                  The fighting gave way
                  For Sages to cast a spell
                  That would return evil Ganon
                  To his own dismal Hell.

                  The spell was spoken,
                  And the sky darkened more,
                  The battle had frozen,
                  All watched the Dark Realm's
                  door.

                  The door, the seal,
                  It glowed unearthly white.
                  Ganon let out a scream
                  As he was pulled from human
                  sight.

                  And surrounding the
                  battlefield,
                  After the legendary fight
                  A deathly, quiet silence,
                  Fell over the cold, cruel
                  night.
