The Heir
by: AltharyaDarkness falls all over earth
Sound of screams cuts the sky As our queen give birth
Wizard who brought her Sits on an ancient tree
Smiles as he plans how our future will be
When i'm looking at the night sky above
i remember, the story that's been told
oh, i wish only once to go back in time
revenge, is the only legacy that's left for me
Chorus:
Call up the elders
Every ghost from Nuphearder
Ask them to start from the beginning
Please bring us back -
Where the queen gave my body fresh air
She was the birthing god and Im the heir
Since our queen's death covered all
Solitude is my best-friend
Day light is perfect
To conjured enemies through solar lens
Passage:
From the fire, from the ground
Into the night, melt their loams
Thallions doom, it is near
Torture his soul and disappear
Make him grovel for his life
Cut him deep and hang him at light
