Free but once, enslaved. Kaladin.

A second chance but not one first.

Be strong, Stormblessed.

Your spren, wind yours, waits for your burst.

 

Being him, what’s full of light

That in living, and newly now, hope very thinned

Echoning, A warrior hiding behind flawed protection

Wishing for running wind.

 

Death of finders: the broken,

Falling deep into the pits of sorrow.

Breathing men carry the bridge,

Suffering for hollow tomorrow.

 

Ridges, that from rising Light,

Fighting for the men who bled.

Bridge Four stands,

Where the broken are led.

 

Honor died once.

For the slave, a goner.

Now gone, a slave.

That for once-dying Honor.

 

Leaders are broken,

That's where stands Fourth Bridge.

Bleeding whose men; that for fighting,

Light rising from the ridge.

 

Tomorrow hollow, for suffering,

Bridges the carryman's breath.

Sorrow of pits; that into deep falling,

Broken that finding of death.

 

Windrunner. Radiant. For wisher’s protection.

Flaws behind, hiding warrior an echo thin.

Very hopes, now anew and alive

In the light of fully what he’s been

 

Bursting you for awaiting your windspren

Your blessed storms, strong being

First one: not but choosing seconds

A Kaladin enslaved once, but freeing.

 

I'm glad this is done, not a trash bin dud, and even better it didn't have to be :ph34r:

how did that only take 30 minutes

is it okay I used chance/choice?

Epic!!!!!

Yea, chance / choice should be fine

alright guys, is it okay if I take the collective of the work here and use it for an English assignment?

As long as you give credit to the people who made the individual keteks, I’m fine with you using mine

Looks cool, I assume it’s the ketek you posted earlier, so good job. Plus the ketek itself is really nice

Unity is honor, we fall.
Broken, the soul mends through oaths radiant—
Seeking life, we find death;
Finding our lives seek Radiance.
Oaths through mending, souls that break;
Falling, our Honor is united.

Oh hi there Kansas.

I see you

Wake up, from down back to nothing

Its over for me.

I can't go.

I wish I would.

I wish I'd go.

Can't I?

I'm for, over it.

Nothing to back down from.

Up, awake.

Soldier stood alone, watching dying embers. Fire consumed the ancient and cold stones. Silence. A war was again started, then ended, then started again. Was war a silent stone, cold and ancient, the consuming fire? Embers dying, watching, alone stood soldiers.

Hey I found this cool poem I thought you might like! It's not quite a Ketek, but...

Spoiler

Doppelganger

 

by James A. Lindon (Dmitri Borgmann’s Beyond Language – 1967).

 

Entering the lonely house with my wife

I saw him for the first time

Peering furtively from behind a bush —

Blackness that moved,

A shape amid the shadows,

A momentary glimpse of gleaming eyes

Revealed in the ragged moon.

A closer look (he seemed to turn) might have

Put him to flight forever —

I dared not act at once.

(For reasons that I failed to understand),

Though I knew I shouldI puzzled over it, hiding alone,

Watching the woman as she neared the gate.

He came, and I saw him crouching

Night after night.

Night after night

He came, and I saw him crouching,

Watching the woman as she neared the gate.

I puzzled over it, hiding alone —

Though I knew I should 

For reasons that I failed to understand

I dared not act at once.

Put him to flight forever.

A closer look (he seemed to turn) might have

Revealed in the ragged moon.

A momentary glimpse of gleaming eyes

A shape amid the shadows,

Blackness that moved.

Peering furtively from behind a bush,

I saw him for the first time,

Entering the lonely house with my wife.
