Wyndlerunner Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Behold a parody! "The Survivor of Hathsin" Spoiler Sung to the tune of “Eye of the Tiger” Vin’s a kid, grew up on the streets Working with a crew, pullin’ heists. Now she’s a Mistborn, and she just can’t be beat ‘Cause she met a man who survived! Chorus It’s the Survivor of Hathsin, it’s the thrill of the flight When you’re pushing with steel on some metal Now that cool Allomancer’s stalking prey in the night, And the priests think that she is the Heir, of the Survivor. Verse 2 Face to face, out in the mists Kel and her are pushing coins Pushing the distance from Luthadel to Fellise It’s just her, in the mists with that man: The Survivor Chorus Kelsier thinks that nobles are awful, Vin was inclined to agree, Then she met Elend and realized, You don’t get morals through your pedigree! Chorus Vin’s in the crowd, watching the square Sees him face down the Lord Ruler Says “I’m Hope”, and Lord Ruler slaps his smug face Then lets the executions commence Chorus Vin survives that terrible day To see the fruit of Kel’s labors OreSeur the Kandra helps the Skaa to rebel And Lord Ruler will rue the day he killed The Survivor. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personification Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 I have decided to return to the parody scene in the most ambitious way possible: "We Didn't Start the Highstorm" Unfortunately, it is not yet done, (though I will try to have it by the end of the week). I am mostly having trouble with the early Rosharan history, so if anyone could give me a moderate list of important events that happened pre-age of solitude, it would be greatly appreciated and speed up the writing process immensely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strangerthanfiction Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) Because I'm far too much of a Broadway nerd, and because I want to see what I can come up with, Falcon in the Dive from Scarlet Pimpernel, sung by Nale hunting Knights Radiant. Spoiler Hunt for these knights! Comb the cities, every street, every grate. Watch for if they find an Oathgate - Drag them out, I know that I will find them. Storms! Knock in the doors, lock up the Shardblades, Track them down by their Spren, And be quick about it now! How in Damnation can I ever prevail, when I'm only a Herald? I can never be duped by those Storming Knights again. I wasn't born to walk on water, I wasn't born to sack and slaughter, But on my soul I wasn't born To stoop, to scorn, to let Knights wander! A man can learn to fight and sunder, A man can learn to rise from under, But when the gauntlet's down, It's time to rise and climb the sky! And soon their eyes will smolder, And their Spren I will deprive! Yes, a man grows older, But his soul remains alive. While there are still Spren that splinter, I will survive! Let my heart grow colder and as bitter As a Highstorm in the drive. There was a dream, a dying ember; There was a dream, I don't remember. But I will resurrect that dream, Though Voidspren scream and wake the sleepers For there on Braize, life seems cheaper - Oh there on Braize the torture's deeper, So when the final duel is near, I'll rise and climb the sky! And soon their eyes will smolder, And their Spren I will deprive! Yes, a man grows older, But his soul remains alive. While there are still Spren that splinter, I will survive! Let my heart grow colder and as bitter As a Highstorm in the drive. These are the days, yes! Days of glory, days of rage and the dream! And the dream of Roshar preys on my bones, Clawing night and day - And no, never kneel, never bend, Enforce the laws, right! Oh the beauty of the sight. I'm not a man to hunger for blood, but the spirit can cry, To be stronger and fiercer and fly, Piercing into the sky and higher, And justice will thrive! Yes, the Knights will cower, while the lawful will survive, If we wait for the darkest hour, Then we come alive! And with winds and Stormlight, we devour, Like a Highstorm in the drive. ...that did not take near as long as I thought it would, and I am rather proud of it as my first attempt.

Borio Singaldi Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I know I want to do a Stormlight parody of Men At Work's "Down Under" involving Gavilar, Dalinar, and Eshonai, but I have yet to figure it out. Just putting it out there that I want it done, and if I can't do it, I leave the suggestion up to others. That parody you just did there is the best, Wyndlerunner.

Spoiler In the height of a highstorm there is quiet For just a moment And in the sky… When I was eighteen I saw this man betray those I’d saved I was enslaved I couldn’t seem to die I fought my way out Helped everyone out far as I could see I fought their way out I stood up and the bridge turned its eyes on me They turned their lives around Total strangers Moved to action by my urging Did enough to get their backing on a trip that was Kholin-bound I fought my way out of hell I fought my way to being Stormblessed I was fiercer than anyone could quell I fought - for this man - a Shardbearer until he fell i fought for anyone around me and defended them well And in the face of enemies and resistance I fought a squad of spearmen into existence And when my prayers to God were met with indifference I picked up a spear, I made my own deliverance In the height of a highstorm there is quiet For just a moment And in the sky… I was fourteen when my brother died He looked at me We were at war and he just looked at me I couldn’t seem to die I’ll fight my way out Fight for this renown far as I can see I’ll fight my way out Get my leverage with victory This is the height of the highstorm, this is the only way I can avenge their memory I challenge you! I think it's kind of funny that this leads straight into The Reynolds Pamphlet, but that would work way better for the leak of the edited vision transcriptions than the aftermath of the challenge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Personification Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Technically, it hasn't been 168 hours yet, so I still got it in by the end of the week (for a given definition of week).

Much spoilers for Mistborn Era 1, enjoy my mediocre guitar skills and not at all Adele-esque singing. This is Vin's angry break up song to the Lord Ruler. Lol. Rolling in the Deep...ness.m4a Spoiler Vin: There's a fire starting in my heart, steel, iron pewter, tin--so I can see in the dark Finally all Alendi's words are clear, Now I see the metal minds that your arms bear. See how I'll leave you, withered, old, you're through. Don't underestimate the things that I will do There's a fire coming from the mist, Giving me power that I never knew existed. The scars on his arms, you caused all that harm It brought him power that he used to make you fall The scars on his arms, the skaa all know him I can't help thinking [Chorus] Rashek's gonna fall We're rolling in the deepness Ruin had us all in his hands And he played us to the beat Lord Ruler: You're gonna wish you never had killed me Ash is gonna fall rolling in the deepness Vin: There's a frightening story to be told You've carved in metal so Ruin will never learn Thinking of you in the depths of your despair You planned all these caverns out, it's almost like you cared [Chorus] Your Inquisitors break through every door They'll tear this world apart to find what they search for Where's the atium more treasured than gold?
