Description
There were sent twelve guardiansTo protect the universes
And when all twelve died
They would find their place in a thirteenth
As phoenixes
The end was long in the coming
But when the end came
The Keeper would take them all in
And continue their grand plan
Hail Erjok
The Wise
Whose wisdom and faith
Will always suffice
Hail Verjax
The Fallen
Whose experience and reason
Will fit any season
Hail Jurog
The Judge
Whose strength and heart
Will find the last part
Hail Zorix
The Beaten
Whose wounds and corpse
Will find you, sport
Hail Koroy
The Majestic
Whose beauty and cunning
Will leave you running
Hail Yuinous
The Lost
Whose compass and guide
Will make the surprise
Hail Sinara
The Traitor
Whose courage and patience
Will free the captive
Hail Jash
The Last
Whose demise and end
Will make certain the Keeper
Hail Hirjax
The Fighter
Whose talons and vigor
Will make him the stinger
Hail Volotrous
The Scholar
Whose scrolls and collection
Will provide the protection
Hail Zeraz
The Confounded
Whose uncertainty and fear
Will leave all in tears
Hail Votion
The Mystic
Whose spells and potions
Will control all the motions
Hail Thirteenth
The Unknown
The Keeper
Whose purpose and meaning
Will tackle our pleading

I like the way that all of the twelve (save the last one) were announced with "the ..." and then a couplet. I like your style in this poem.
