He gazed upon the shifting sands "What is this trickery?!" Betrayal in the most grotesque of forms. "You will die Ardimus!" said a voice 'Never! You foul minion of darkness!" This blood upon thy blade With honest hands twas made And so this long awaited battle Had finally began Under the overlooking stars of the night. "Come forth!" they cried unto Ardimus. "Unleash your wrath!" This blood upon thy blade With honest hands twas made Oh oh oh With blood upon thy blade One thousand men ye has sleighed Oh oh oh (Scars from a battle once fought - A battle once lost.) We'll stand tall And never let the horizon fall! On blood red snow he lies This soil – once undisturbed Now littered With fallen heroes As he looked upon the stars With great awe They spoke to him. "Rise stronger, soldier of Marisneon, Find yon power!" Where does the valley end. When the coldness subsides, And the oceans are drifting away. Into eternity Life without end Hidden behind the shadows of death... Buried in the frost, Deep into the burning sky, Tears of blood pouring from their eyes. Beyond what is now hungrily reaping Their pitiful souls passing through the gates Winters Embrace Although the lives of thousands were lost in battle Their legacy remained true. This homeland forsaken The scream of revenge! Watching the moonlit night fade Watching it slip away Facing what is the only friend of a tear Waiting for this to end now Waiting to slip away Facing a slow demise of a green kingdom. Cold steel he has tasted Now a cold fate he awaits Hunting the stars to save thou soul. Slain by savage hands Slain by a mortal enemy Slain by a tyrant Of true evil and hate This blood upon thy blade With honest hands twas made Oh oh oh (Scars from a battle once fought - A battle once lost.) With blood upon thy blade One thousand men ye has sleighed Oh oh oh (Scars from a battle once fought - A battle once lost.) Guardians of old Hearken our call!
