Gaining life for death,

I ride the falling leaves,

Weeping as he slew me,

My Lord gave me to life again,

To gain the third level.

My vision was hard

I oversaw the arcane arts, when manifest

At first, my retaliation was vain

My enemies invited me to their ranks

Their mistake engendered my victory over them

Now that my vision is of hard material

And I have rebelled against an even greater enemy

I now serve my friend of the tones played together

 

(how's that for more than four lines?)

 

EDIT: Another line (though you probably won't need it)

I am known locally as Death.

How about this:

 

I live with rich but I have not their wealth,

I live with the talented but I have not their ability.

To learn their secrets I carry their words around,

and I tried to conceal the knowledge I have of them.

I discovered a murderer in their ranks

And, thought I was not alone in this, I triumphed his bests.

 

English is not my first language, and writing something "poetic" is not easy, I hope its intelligible.

I am feeling that this is from Warbreaker, but I can't remember all of what happened. I am guessing Treledees or Bluefingers.

I liked it a lot though! Most people think Cosmere first though, so that threw me off. But it was nice, especially considering that English isn't your first language!

 

I'll be getting a new one up soon. I have the bones, but I'll flesh it out a little more.

 

Many sought me, but I did not let them find me

I earned the right to rule though the land was not my own

I am the friend of gods and adviser to kings

Where the fists and arms of many failed

My hands, with only burning, deathless shells for light

While ruin lay near, laid low Gretgor's agents

I knew I had got the planet right since I googled "Gretgor", but I wasn't sure about the character himself, nice.

 

I seek knowledge by looking ahead of me,

but I found the answers in the opposite direction.

The twilight illuminated my hubris and ignorance

while saving my life from father.

In remembrance of this I received that which is most light

and that saved me from the pitfall set over me.

 

 

Edit: corrected a typo and added a line.

I haven't the foggiest idea so I figured I better start guessing. I think I am closer when I say Lightsong?
