Ballad: Battle of Emridy Meadows
Hail heroes of Greyhawk! I don't have much going on this week so why not check out this cool song on YouTube produced by an amazing Greyhawk fan, 3orcs (StylinLP38 on Canonfire). It's a cover of a classic song sang with lyrics that are spot on a historical account of the battle:"The Ballad of the Battle of Emridy Meadows was a critical military event in 569 CY in which the allied forces of good sacked the Temple of Elemental Evil and dispersed hordes of its cultists. Emridy Meadows itself is a series of grassy clearings south of the Velverdyva in the World of Greyhawk. The idea behind this video is to convey Greyhawk history to the players in a campaign without reading box text to them out of a book. That the bard Greg Laughlighter playing for his meal at a local tavern or inn. Like the Village of Hommlet "Inn of the Welcome Wench" of the T1-4 Temple of Elemental Evil campaign."
That was fantastic! Great song (especially if you recognize the original), and the accompanying pictures were wonderful.
