A POEM OF LUCIUS D. DECANUS

  LUCIUS D. DECANUS

  Across the desert sands of time I tread,

  From Thutmose the III, my old name shed.

  Born in Egypt’s realm of ancient lore,

  A Legionnaire’s life, where honour was bred.

  In year 641 A.D, Egypt’s hold did wane,

  No longer a province, a shift in terrain.

  To Rome’s heartland, I ventured forth,

  A Decanus now, proving my worth.

  In shadows deep, my fate did twist,

  A Vampire’s touch, a darkened audience I begged.

  Alexander Augustus, my superior esteemed,

  A creature of night, as I once deemed.

  Dark immortality, his offer profound,

  In exchange for loyalty, forever bound.

  Accepting the gift, my life’s path anew,

  Frumentarii now, under a sky so blue.

  Emperor Heraclius, I served with pride,

  In shadows and whispers, my skills applied.

  Frumenatrii Inc., a group that thrives,

  Darkstalkers united, where each one strives.

  New Salem’s embrace, a home concealed,

  In Willow’s domain, our power revealed.

  Contract killers, assassins, torturers and more,

  A supernatural realm we expertly explore.

  So heed my tale of ages untold,

  A journey through history, a destiny bold.

  Lucius D. Decanus, my name resounds,

  In the tapestry of time, my story surrounds.
