(One thousand dawns in a foreign land
For the might of "one" I stand
Dispatch the few and then to east)
I ride...
Look sharp! A thousand points aimed into sky
Will fall, as first wave to cleanse the night
Stand Fast, and hold the ranks until my call
For the broken truce
Deep burrows in a frozen ground
Whereby the crafted war-machines are found
Nearer still, the stench of molten fuel
For the second wave of fire
The few to whom make claim
The burden of mortal man you now face
Yield to he that wants all
That may ever be
And as night gives way to dawn
The scene paint itself on
Blank minds, on a frozen plain
With odds beyond compare
I have watched night to day
As fields form green to red transform
Before these battle-weary eyes
In lands so far from home
("Through the thin veil of mist
My gauntlet is held high")
Now! With force unmatched
Let free the strength of night
Dispatching all with hate
Those that could deny my will!
("Follow close behind, over icy dale we bound")
Carried aback swift beasts
Into the fray we ride
And so the melee's circle
Is now complete
Thus as final wave
And sealing the "coward's path"
I warm the frozen steel
In a feral-eyed blood wrath!
Flakes of white fall south
As pools of red issue forth
Salacious fear of the fallen
Closing on the one
Taste my flesh-honed blade
As it samples from your life
The scene within the crimsoned cleft
Has now been drawn to close
A callow tool in weaker foe
Broken by a k**ing glance
A victory claimed by
I... have lead the charge
I... stand victor
On this foreign arctic soil
Satisfy the ancient pact
Return... a warrior's
Return... the champion's choice of path
Unmarred of service or steel
I will return to...
I have ended all that stood before
The will of the insatiable one
But now I ride for thee
To return to the unspoiled splendor of Eidolon
