The Great Evil: Part 2

The eerie smell of something in the far distance,
A Great Evil that continues with persistence,
Mortals together form a resistance,
Ready for no coexistence.

They endowed weapons only to the best,
A swift surge passes through with unrest,
The soldiers now form ranks with a new zest,
By the influence of good they have been blessed.

The battle raged for days at a time,
Death such a horrible price to pay for a crime,
They knew that the battle was won and the debts have been paid,
Unfortunately the Great Evil wasn't done with its charade.
