Requiem,

In the end, only the dead shall remain;
One man, one soul, one will to Defile;
A single guide that can stop this Wall of Pain;
An alone soul from the Shadow Isle.

Free me from the pleasures of this flesh Cocoon;
Guide our feeble souls with your beautiful voice;
Lay Waste upon thy enemies on this beautiful moon;
Following your song in this rhythmic rejoice.

I ask for forgiveness for all my sins;
I ask for a guide to bring me salvation;
I ask for thyself when your pilgramage begins;
I ask for thyself out of desperation.

I ask for a single wish in my postmortem; I ask for thyself; please bring forth Requiem.

Author Note: More effective if typed line per line, for quick communication with your team’s Karthus.

    Requiem whispers high,

    Karthus calls death from the sky,

    Silence, souls comply.

    Voice thy opinion, a pine, not ping

    For inhibition tempers, whilst tempers sing

    Want not for alert, nor timer, nor tine

    Solely harsh rebuke such efforts find


    Only when broached in constrained rote

    Shall one’s request, in earnest, be note

    A missive, penned, by dead man’s hand

    Such prayers devoid of reprimand


    “Vocal Lich of Ill Renown”

    “Might thy Requiem bare down”

    “And slay their wretch with thine own hand”

    “So that thy riches may still expand?”


    So it arrives, in windowed still

    A small request for blood to spill

    Met, in moments, by a pause

    Prying hope from Cerberus’ jaws


    Yet seconds tick, and fangs down bare

    A threat escapes, still unaware

    Of mercy given, salvation’s light

    A request met, albeit with spite


    “Fuck you no, I can’t kill twitch”

    “I’d rather ult your mother, bitch”

    “Dog teammates, all should uninstall”

    “I’m afk once I recall”

    Here’s some haikus for “KARTHUS ULT”:

     

    Spectral whispers float,

    Karthus chants a deathly tune,

    Unleash the Requiem.

     

    From the shadowed depths,

    Cascading notes echo forth,

    Souls consumed by death.

     

    Eyes turn skyward,

    As darkness swallows the land,

    Karthus claims your prize.

     

    Ethereal whispers,

    Karthus channels his dark might,

    Let Death rain from above.

     

    Sing, ethereal dirge,

    Death’s embrace from jungle’s heart,

    Silent requiem.

    My only criticism would be that while your rhyme structure is accurate, and the ending couplet is excellent, it does not have the correct syllabic stress alternation to make it a true Shakespearean sonnet

      Flashbacks to the term “Iambic Pentameter” from school.

      On my deathbed, I want a full lecture of every esoteric fact I’ve learned from education because ain’t no other methodology makes my life flash before my eyes as vividly.

    Look, if you had one Karthus or one ult opportunity

    To seize every bot gank you ever wanted in one moment

    Would you type it or just let it slip?

    Yo

    His support is sweaty, lane pressure’s weak, arms are in Doritos and dusty

    There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti

    ADC’s nervous, but on the surface, he looks calm and auto spacing

    To drop Caitlyn traps, but he keeps on forgetting the keybinds

    What he wrote down, top and mid go so loud over a failed 1v2 gank

    He opens his mouth, but the pings won’t come out

    He’s chokin’, how? Everybody’s ganking him now

    The clock’s run out, time’s up, over, Karthus please Press R

    Snap back to reality, jungler, there goes our priority

    Ope, there goes our support, he inted , he’s so mad

    But he won’t give up that easy, no, he won’t have it less than 0-10

    He knows his whole back’s to these apes, it don’t matter

    He’s dope, he knows that, but he’s broke, he’s so stagnant

    He knows when he goes back to this bot lane, that’s when it’s

    Back to the lab again,

    Yo, please press R Karthus

    Better go capture this herald and hope we don’t get dived
