lyrics

As Darius emerged to Barren Fields
He saw the King’s army thereupon
Behind them Fairhaven was ablaze
Silhouetted by the light of dawn

He saw the Brothers change their course
And face the kingsgaurd on offense
The armies squared off on the field
The final battle now commenced

Crimson the sun
Culmination
Of a journey begun
Enshrouded
But with the light
Reveals the sight
Of a land in the plight
Of bloodshed
For history
Is writ with the blood
Of the slain, by the hand
Of Conquerors
Bards of the dawn,
What tale shall you write?
The stage is set for darkness.
The stage is set for light.

Pikes gripped tight and shields up high,
Sun breaching the twilight sky.
The time for battle is nigh,
Thunderous sound of the war cry.
Charge!

The king's general Verrone rode forth with with horse and lance.
Charging with heavy cavalry, an unstoppable advance.

"Run them through! Sever their heads!
These mere peasants don't stand a chance!
Kill them like the dogs they are!
Show no mercy, have no fear,
For our victory is near.
Let them rue the day that they stood against the knights of Overgaard."

A storm of blades and carnage reigns on,
As blood soaks the Barren Fields.
Darius looked on in horror at the head of
Cid on the spear of a kingsman
Royal banners covered in the blood of Fairhaven.

"I cannot sit idly by and witness unjust bloodshed.
Parted with my ignorance I curse the king's name.
I shall slaughter all of you for becoming so corrupted,
Now come and face The Unyielding"

Sword now ablaze
Cut through the haze
Of this treacherous maze
Of Bloodshed
Darius & Verrone
Squared off alone
For both knew behind their raged filled eyes
Only one would leave this field alive.

With swords and shields they exchanged a flurry of blows,
As the ground itself quaked beneath these two foes.

A storm of blades and carnage reigns on,
As blood soaks the Barren Fields.
Darius, though stabbed, swings his blade
And severs the head of Verrone.
Darius, soaked in blood,
As his sight fades he falls.
