1. PROLOGUE

History forgets many things,
Records of great events and wars are kept,
But the lives of the ones who fought are erased by time.
Warriors may die,
But their legacy always withstands the test of time


2. BLOOD MOON

Tonight begins our battle against evil,
To save our land from a dark age.
The wind of death is blowing throughout the fields,
Where both armies will face their graves.
But this night won't be the end of our story,
We will stand tall and will prevail.
Under one banner we'll defend our country.
United we are strong!

Come to me, brothers and sisters,
Of this land, we're the protectors.
Follow me, my fellow soldiers,
Make your stand and fight with honor.

The skies will reflect our enemy's blood,
Our blades will protect our ancestor's soil,

(Crimson light!)
In the darkest night,
(Red death strikes!)
Shines a blood moon in the sky.

Our blades now soaked with the blood of the enemy,
Even the moon has turned to red.
A sign from god that our battle has been won,
This scarlet sky seals their demise.
The survivors will tell the tale of the fallen,
And the legend will carry on.
Now our story shall echo through the kingdom,
The tale of our glory!

Come to me, brothers and sisters,
Of this land, we're the protectors.
Follow me, my fellow soldiers,
Make your stand and fight with honor.

The skies will reflect our enemy's blood
Our blades will protect our ancestor's soil

(Crimson light!)
In the darkest night
(Red death strikes!)
Shines a blood moon in the sky

Rivers of blood have been spilled on the green fields,
Our victory will pave the path for our children.
So,

Come to me, brothers and sisters,
Of this land, we're the protectors.
Follow me, my fellow soldiers,
Make your stand and fight with honor.

The skies will reflect our enemy's blood
Our blades will protect our ancestor's soil

(Crimson light!)
In the darkest night
(Red death strikes!)
Shines a blood moon in the sky


3. THE STORM

Since I left you for war,
I accumulate scars,
Yet I still see the shore,
Where on one knee I swore.
But now i must stand tall,
Put my life on the line,
To protect your smile,
I put my back against the wall.

I won’t regret the choice I’ve made,
And I should never be afraid,
To see a life starting to fade,
For it’s the price that must be paid.
Against all odds I will come home,
And all this will be an echo,
Of what us men could’ve become,
If this madness remained untouched!

We’ll fight until the break of dawn, until the sun rises Again.
Again!

We will fight to protect our land
And the people within it
We will go through hell to bring you peace
And we’ll do it proudly!

Even in the darkest hours,
Even when no hope transpires,
We will carry all your burdens,
And bring you freedom
And when we are under fire,
When the situation’s dire,
We remember where we came from,
To break through the storm.

The day will soon be there,
When I’ll see you again,
Put my hand in your hair,
This will not be in vain.
The ordeals I’ll go through,
Will be but a light breeze,
Too weak to blow away,
The tree of life we grew.

I’ll keep the promise that we made,
And I will come back home again,
To see a life starting to bloom,
It’s all the reward I demand.
For now I must join my soldiers,
And take back what we lost before,
This is how I end this letter,
But don’t worry I’ll send some more!

We’ll fight until the break of dawn, until the sun rises Again.
Again!

We will fight to protect our land
And the people within it
We will go through hell to bring you peace
And we’ll do it proudly!

Even in the darkest hours,
Even when no hope transpires,
We will carry all your burdens,
And bring you freedom
And when we are under fire,
When the situation’s dire,
We remember where we came from,
To break through the storm.

This was his last letter
As death came back for him.

I have fought to protect our land
And the people within it
I have gone through hell to bring you peace
And I did it proudly!

Even in the darkest hours,
Even when no hope transpires,
I did all I could accomplish,
To bring you freedom
And when I was under fire,
When I wanted to surrender,
I remembered where I came from,
To break through the storm.


4. DRAGONS

Far from the underworld,
Our kingdom shall return,
The beasts with no mercy.

The creatures return,
Your kingdom see it burn,
Our legacy returns.

Our prayers were answered today,
They came to us from the unknown.
Bringers of death and destruction,
In their path sole desolation,
From their power we shall obtain,
What was our own so long ago,
The moon will once more turn to red
And the soil will drink up your blood!

(From the skies, and the sea we will conquer!)
Your blood!
(With power, no mercy, no surrender!)

Pray your gods, they won’t come, the beasts will stay!
Our army is hungry and you’re the prey!

Flying high above the clouds,
You will not see them come,
Your destiny is to fall down,
And never rise again!

(Now) rise from depths of hell, and conquer!
(Now) come back from where you fell, as monsters!
(Hey!) as the phoenix comes back from the dead,
Our kingdom will return from ashes!

(Now) set out on your journey to bring pain,
(Now) on their destroyed nation you shall reign!
(Hey!) the power that you hold, they shall see,
Burned by beasts of the past is their story!

You will all meet your fate today,
The gates of hell are waiting you,
These giant wings breaking the air,
Will be your last sight on this earth,
Here we’ll avenge the ones who fell,
Under your blades so long ago,
The ground now covered with your blood
And the dragons eating your soul!

(From the skies, and the sea we will conquer!)
Your soul!
(With power, no mercy, no surrender!)

Pray your gods, they won’t come, the beasts will stay!
Our army is hungry and you’re the prey!

Night is falling on this devasted land,
Fire glowing far in the fields of blood.
Will our glory come back to us, at last,
We shall fight, to preserve, our country.

(Now) rise from depths of hell, and conquer!
(Now) come back from where you fell, as monster!
(Hey!) as the phoenix comes back from the dead,
Our kingdom will return from ashes!

(Now) set out on your journey to bring pain,
(Now) on their destroyed nation you shall reign!
(Hey!) the power that you hold, they shall see,
Burned by beasts of the past is their story!


5. KING

Now the time has come to write history,
And unleash despair upon the enemy.
Now the time has come for me to take the lead,
To sit upon my throne,
To take power alone.

No army shall bring me down to my knees.
The lion conquers everything he sees.

Lords of war I pray to thee,
Let me destroy their army,
I will march upon their land,
And bring them under my command.

Bow down to me,
I am the king chosen by the divines,
Bow down to me

Since I’ve claimed the throne,
My will is set in stone,
Even if on my own,
I won’t be overthrown.
Destiny calls to me,
Conquest is my duty,
Defeat I shall not see,
I only know victory.

No army shall bring me down to my knees.
The lion conquers everything he sees.

Lords of war I pray to thee,
Let me destroy their army,
I will march upon their land,
And bring them under my command.

Bow down to me,
I am the king chosen by the divines,
Bow down to me

I am the one who will stand in the end,
I am the one who will witness your fate,
I am the one who will be remembered,
In history my name shall be engraved.

Bow down to me.

Bow down to me,
I am the king chosen by the divines,
Bow down to me.


6. BROKEN CROWN

With the passion of flames
And the will of gods.
We fought together
To bring hope to all
But this war has torn us apart,
The crown was broken
By a blade wielded by time and destiny

It’s like I can’t go on.

As all light has left my world,
I stand alone once more.

Far beyond the endless road
And far beyond the light we journeyed in.
I face this path alone.
Far beyond the light of hope
And far beyond the shadows of love.
Far beyond the broken crown
I walk this path alone again.

I swore to you I would live on,
But hope is a rare treat.
This hell on earth has taken all that we’ve built
The memories of the times before
They still live in my mind.
Your smile is engraved in my mind
I won’t forget it. it’s like I can’t go on.

As all light has left my world,
I stand alone once more.

Far beyond the endless road
And far beyond the light we journeyed in.
I face this path alone.
Far beyond the light of hope
And far beyond the shadows of love.
Far beyond the broken crown
I walk this path alone again.

What good is a king without queen?
What good is a moon without sun?

As all light has left my world,
I stand alone once more.

Far beyond the endless road
And far beyond the light we journeyed in.
I face this path alone.
Far beyond the light of hope
And far beyond the shadows of love.
Far beyond the broken crown
I walk this path alone again.


7. WARRIORS

We are warriors, warriors,
The kind that would die for honor,
The flame in our hearts burns so bright.
We are warriors, victorious,
As brave as the tales describe us,
And we are ready to put on our armor once more.

You are our strength, the fire that forged our steel.
You gave us the faith, to stand and continue to fight.
We will make them pay, the ones who once threatened your Peace.
But as of today, we drink to celebrate our victory!

Come on, now rejoice!
We are back and we have won!
Come on, raise your horns!
Drink your ale and sing with us!

We are warriors, warriors,
The kind that would die for honor,
The flame in our hearts burns so bright.
We are warriors, victorious,
As brave as the tales describe us,
But we are ready to put on our armor once more.

We have fought the dead, a legion coming straight from hell.
For your help we prayed, and fire rained down from the Skies.
Creatures of legend, scales of steel and breath of fire.
Came to our aid, and brought the empire to its knees.

Come on, now rejoice!
We are back and we have won!
Come on, raise your horns!
Drink your ale and sing with us!

We are warriors, warriors,
The kind that would die for honor,
The flame in our hearts burns so bright.
We are warriors, victorious,
As brave as the tales describe us,
And we are ready to put on our armor once more.


8. LEGACY

The light of the stars,
Shines far up in the skies.
As far as our people are.
They came in legions,
Invaded our homes,
We had to fight like lions.

All my brothers heed my call,
For it is time now.

Follow me in battle where we belong,
On this cold ground is where we’ll stand, or fall.

Sword in hand we charge to battle,
Victory shall be ours it is our destiny.

Our hearts beat for our people,
Our shields protect the kingdom,
We will slash through the enemy,
To maintain our legacy.

The light of the flames,
Burning in the distance,
Its blaze is burning our hearts.
A village in ruins,
Children burning alive,
They’ll pay for what they have done.

All my brothers heed my call,
For it is time now.
Follow me in battle where we belong,
On this cold ground is where we’ll stand, or fall.
Sword in hand we charge to battle,
Victory shall be ours it is our destiny.
Our hearts beat for our people,
Our shields protect the kingdom,
We will slash through the enemy,
To maintain our legacy.


9. LAST BATTLE

The time has come now for us,
To go back home victorious.
Tired and weak we journey,
But a new battle awaits us.
The war has ended you see,
But only to a degree,
A fierce battle is yet to come

We will not lose, we will survive.
We are fighting our destiny!

Welcome to the final bout,
The last battle of this long war,
Don’t worry death will not follow you inside.
We gather inside this inn where beer and mead flow Endlessly,
To celebrate victory!
Welcome to the final bout,
The last battle of this long war,
Don’t worry death will not follow you inside.
We gather inside this inn where beer and mead flow endlessly
To celebrate victory!

Tankards of ale we empty,
But don’t worry there’s plenty!
We won’t put all this mead down,
This is our awaited reward.
Tomorrow we’ll head back home,
But now we drink until dawn,
This battle we have yet to win!

We will not lose, we will survive.
We are fighting our destiny!

We will not lose, we will survive.
We are fighting our destiny!

Welcome to the final bout,
The last battle of this long war,
Don’t worry death will not follow you inside.
We gather inside this inn where beer and mead flow endlessly
To celebrate victory!
Welcome to the final bout,
The last battle of this long war,
Don’t worry death will not follow you inside.
We gather inside this inn where beer and mead flow endlessly
To celebrate victory!
