Riders of the Mark
Here we ride, as this final battle comes
Dawn fires our steel
Red on this last ride to war
Blood of these ancient lands
Blood of the kings
Courage and honour in death
Death in my charge as we thunder through iron and bone
Warriors bred to the land
I see my home as it once was
In days when the shadows were short
Land of my fathers
Meadows of tall grass shone
Gold in the pale Autumn sun
Land of my sons
Where white flowers cover their graves
Banners fly on the horizon
Sons of Eorl
Oath-bound our lances and swords
Red eye upon us all
Facing the night
Brothers in arms at the end
Mustered for war on this field as our allies fall
Men of the West here to die
I see my home as it once was
In days when the shadows were short
Land of my fathers
Meadows of tall grass shone
Gold in the pale Autumn sun
Land of my sons
Where white flowers cover their graves
[orcish chants]
Land of my fathers
Meadows of tall grass shone
Gold in the pale Autumn sun
Land of my sons
Where white flowers cover their graves
Lords of war, death in our hearts this day
Blood stains our steel
Black on this last ride to war
Death for these ancient lands
Death for my king
Brothers in arms at the end

This Day I Die
03:47
|
|||
Lightning splits the darkening sky
Hordes gathered here waiting to die
Around me faces set with fear
Rain coming down - hiding the tears
Steeling my nerve - my weapon is drawn
Will any of us live to see the dawn?
On this field
As the clouds cry
Feel no fear
As this day I die
On wings of death
My enemies fly
I will join them now
As this day I die
Rushing forward - muddy ground
The dead rise up - a bloody mound
My weapon strikes left and then strikes right
Comrades dead and trampled in the fight
Steeling my nerve - my weapon is drawn
Will any of us live to see the dawn?
On this field
As the clouds cry
Feel no fear
As this day I die
On wings of death
My enemies fly
I will join them now
As this day I die
As this day I die

The Atrocity
06:47
|
|||
The icy winds of the plain rip through the air
We are without food and thus without a care
The aching hunger and lack of spoils
Become entangled with desperation’s coils
Glory or Death
Riding - The beating of hoof beats on hard packed earth
Charging - For death, blood and combat I have a thirst
Killing - like a pack of rabid wolves on the hunt
Bloodlust - We’re out seeking anyone to confront
Glory or Death
In the path of this, an innocent village is caught
Chaos and pain and carnage are wrought
The raping of women, the wasting of men
The hate and the fear, no pillage or gain
All the pain and death I witnessed
Tangled up inside
I sit on a lonely mountaintop
And contemplate my pride
I was a part of this
In shame I hang my head
As memories fill my mind
And tears fall for the dead
I witnessed the atrocity
I sit back and an image fills my mind
A strong man dying, elderly and kind
My mentor’s words filled my ears as I rode
“Remember always my son, the warrior’s code”
I witnessed the atrocity

Blademaster
03:12
|
|||
A dark figure in the distance
Clad in armour of blackened steel
He has come on a mission of vengeance
To force his torturers to kneel
None can face him and live
Blademaster
Steel at his side
Blademaster
Winds of hell you ride
Blademaster
Steel at his side
Blademaster
Facing his foes he gives no ground
Ending their lives without a sound
In his eyes there is no emotion
Destined to fight – battle his devotion
None can face him and live
Blademaster
Steel at his side
Blademaster
Winds of hell you ride
Blademaster
Steel at his side
Blademaster
...Master of the blade

Six great walls surround the fortress tall
Ranged in shadow ‘gainst the sky
On the walls a figure stands alone
Realising he is here to die
Though the Nadir hordes fill the land,
I will fight when they ride and I’ll stand
Though the fires burn through the land
Let a legend be wrought by my hand
So the assault begins, warriors storming the wall
But the defence is true (a legend stands with you)
Bodies mounting, the arrows falling like rain
(The Deathwalker waits)
Though the Nadir hordes fill the land,
I will fight when they ride and I’ll stand
Though the fires burn through the land
Let a legend be wrought by my hand
Carnage on the Walls of Delnoch
In the dying rays of a blood red sun
Brothers in battle we’ll where we stand
‘midst the…
Carnage on the Walls of Delnoch
Six great walls surround the fortress tall
Ranged in Shadow ‘gainst the sky
On the walls a figure stands alone
Realising he is still alive
Though the Nadir hordes fill the land,
I will fight when they ride and I’ll stand
Though the fires burn through the land
Let a legend be wrought by my hand
Carnage on the Walls of Delnoch
The sun sets on the Drenai Empire
The sun sets forever

Stranger
03:52

Ashes
The fire that burned inside of me
A cold wind blows within me now
I’ve banished warmth and kindness
Walking a dark road, death close behind
…without a sound
Nightmares fill my dreams with horrors
So I numb my mind -
Looking into lifeless eyes
Never standing in the light
Ashes
The fire that burned inside of me
A cold wind blows within me now
I’ve banished warmth and kindness
Walking a dark road, death close behind
…without a sound
No redemption in this land of blood
I’m the darkest stranger
Murderer…Waylander
Never standing in the light
For salvation I will fight
Stranger
Waylander

Gellan's Lament

Gellan’s lament
Serenity flows through me
A trail of blue so pure and calm
I face my foes and take their lives
and see them fall in death…
a warrior, leader of men
Now I lay down my life
So much now lies at stake
So many here rely on me
For fate and pain and grief I
Hail
To the warriors at my side
To those who fought and died
A Curse
To the source of all above
Now hear my last lament
Lament
Battle is joined once again
And I am old and tired
The stench of war, the screams of pain
Slaughter all around
My final sacrifice at hand
On this field I die
So much now lies at stake
So many here rely on me
For fate and pain and grief I
Hail
To the warriors at my side
To those who fought and died
A Curse
To the source of all above
Now hear my last lament
I have reached the end
I have reached the end
I fall

Behold the Runesword
04:55
|
|||
Burning with power in the storm-rent sky
Thrust aloft and held up high
From the forges of gods it came
To rend the dark and win me fame
Such deeds of slaughter it could tell
Of souls it drank and sent to hell
On the winds of battle I now fly
And all who stand before me come to die
To battle I must go now
Conflict is all I know now
To battle I must go now
Conflict is all I know
Behold the Runesword
Armies of darkness rend the land
And I shall lead them sword in hand
None can face me or this fell blade
That was with sorcery made
A beacon of light in these dark times
Foes now suffer for their crimes
Sword arm rises, the false one cries
See the power of the Runesword in my eyes
To battle I must go now
Conflict is all I know now
To battle I must go now
Conflict is all I know
Behold the Runesword

The Last Scion
09:14
|
|||
A black shadow stalks the land
The fires of heresy ignite the sky
Whence gathered on the blasted plain
The Scions prepared to die
Slaughtered in their hundreds
Order reduced to ruin
Betrayed by fanatics
Last refuge of the insane
Two decades and from forest he came
Celestial hatred in weak flesh entombed
Will of malice tormenting man
Yet open wounds in the Godhead burn
To kill the one who remains
Running and hiding
Shrouded from view
Exposed for what he is
His pain begins anew
Two decades and from forest he came
Branded the liar, outlaw his name
With his blade in hand and powers returned
He runs no more, turns and stands
To face the pursuers and battle the blind
To restore true light to these shattered lands
And the last Scion rides
Back to the fields of slaughter he turns
Barren wastes of ghostly presence
To his fallen brothers he pledges his life
Acclamations sung on the winds of the dead
And the last Scion rides
He seek the knowledge, he seeks the tower
Restoring the faith and compounding his power
For his mentor and charge he knows no other way
This is his final hour, this – his last day
And the last Scion rides
A black shadow stalks the land
The fires of heresy ignite the sky
Whence gathered on the blasted plain
The Scions prepared to die
