I can no longer see my face amongst the shadows
Nor can I hear the voices of the Elders call
I cannot see the open fields before my eyes
Nor can I find the swords my fathers left behind

I can no longer hold the shields of war
Nor can I dwell among the graves of those who came before
I can no longer hear the whispering of the wind
Among the trees for they are dead

I can no longer walk the paths of times long gone
Nor can I gaze upon the ancient hills and sacred stones
I can no longer reach the Hallowed Halls of Gold
Nor can I hear the tales of heroes brave and kings so wise

I can no longer feel the rain from skies above
Nor embrace the chill of winter's breeze
Nor the warmth of the summer sun
For they have gone

All that stands before me is a land decayed
All that stands before me is a people betrayed
All that stands before me is a sea of despair
All that stands before me is a legacy in ruin

As though in a dream, he stumbles in the darkness
Lost amongst the ruins of old
Suddenly, he casts his eyes above
As thunder and lightning crack the sky

A shining sword of steel, glows bright in the dark
A sure sign from the Gods
Upon its blade, the mark of his kin
Etched in runes, their names still clear

And now, within this raging storm, comes a moment of quiet
As he hears the words of his forebears echo

Take this sword, my son, for it bears the names of your fathers
Go forth and reclaim your long, forgotten legacy
For ours is eternal

From the Land of Shadow I arose
Where fell beasts of darkness dwell
There in those bitter wastes my doom was forged
By the Eternal Fires of Fate

By thunder and lightning I was awoken
And a storm raged deep inside
As the Kings of Old called out to me
Go forth and follow the signs

I raise my sword to the sky as I
Forge ahead through pathways unknown
Commanding the powers within its blade
Shining bright and true

My doom, made beneath the stars
I welcome as I ride towards lands afar
Glory awaits me ahead!
A noble heart unscathed

For years, alone, I wandered
Far in the North through Twilight Realms
In solitude - steadfast and bold
A Champion shall be made

The fire burns on ever brighter
For I bear the names of my fathers
Their legacy I carry, their names I hold true
Hearken to their call

A legacy in ruin, lost and forgotten
Buried by time, obscured by the ages
Its secrets are mine!
Its secrets are mine!

Revealed to me now, out from the dark
Wisdom and glory, honour and might
A legacy restored!
A legacy restored!

And as the Kings of Old
They sung to him songs of legends
Of glory, honour and might
From high above in their halls

Of how the Undying
Shall greet him
Upon their thrones of gold
When he arrives victorious
With sword in hand so mighty

And from the sky their voices
Broke through into the darkness
Relighting the ageless fire
That burns within his heart

For years, alone, he wandered
Through Twilight Realms to bring forth
A New Dawn out of Shadow
And awaken forgotten glory

And now the Kings of Old
Greet him upon his throne
For his legacy
Is now renewed!
