The Ballad of Arnoth the Wild

Far across the ocean and into the great unknown
That is where Sir Arnoth fled to wander all alone
Early in his life he was a well-respected soldier
Served his country to the end, he was a true warrior

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
You're not the one to blame
We need you now more than ever
Do not feel guilt and shame

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
Forever we'll know your name
Protector of the magic spear
The keeper of the flame

King Thorgan got him knighted, the best day of his life
That's when he received the gift, an ancient magic knife
He got the blade melted into his trusted spear
On the battlefield he was unbeatable, or so it would appear

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
You're not the one to blame
We need you now more than ever
Do not feel guilt and shame

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
Forever we'll know your name
Protector of the magic spear
The keeper of the flame

One day he fought side by side with his beloved friend
The one who got him knighted, King Thorgan met his end
Sir Arnoth blamed himself, and he could never let it go
So, he ran away, so far away, those many years ago

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
You're not the one to blame
We need you now more than ever
Do not feel guilt and shame

Carry on, carry on, dear Arnoth
Forever we'll know your name
Protector of the magic spear
The keeper of the flame

Arriving at his island we're met with a gruesome sight
In the corner of his cabin we see the former knight
A shadow of his former self, he sits there all alone
With spear in hand, his treasured gift, all left is skin and bone
