Author's Note: Just having fun with old-timey English and playing with what might've happened between the time of the War and the events we know of the Underground.
Harken now, with faces pale!
Incline thine ear to me;
I'll tell you now of Und'rtale
and of the fox, Toby.
Long ago in ages past
when monsters did roam free,
There came a war. Spells were cast
and man had victory.
Deep beneath old Ebbot's roots
the magic ones were sealed.
We grew fat on vict'ry's fruits
while silent bells did peal.
Children would oft' hear the sound
as some would give swift chase
to find the songs from underground
which called them to that place.
One might hear the chimes of joy.
Another, bells of art
pulling them from all their toys
and setting them apart.
Through the woods and to the mount
the fallen children climbed,
some with miles too great to count
to seek the bells sublime.
Heav'nly heights to hellish depths
they fell down, one by one;
ancient pain had brought new deaths
in vain for want of sun.
Again a child did fall down
and landed on a bed.
The flow'rs under that small crown
served to protect their head.
The reason why they came
no soul yet knows that mis'try.
Yet of the child named Frisk
their story's now our hist'ry.
