The Sunless Citadel
They say a mighty fortress sunk into the ground in ages long ago
Within its broken halls deep within the earth a cursed stake was sown
A seedling then took root
Up grew its evil shoots
Upon on its limbs a wicked fruit
They say that deadly thorns await in bioluminescent briars
And an unholy outcast feeds the tree whomever it desires
A legion of twig blights
Rise in the dead of night
To sate their bloody appetite
But you never know if what they say is true
Until you go below and see what waits for you
They say from the ledge you smell the smoke of blazing dragon fire
And savage rats and goblins feast upon the bones of all those who inquire
But once a year we're told
A precious apple grows
Deep down within the twilight grove
Within its broken halls deep within the earth a cursed stake was sown
A seedling then took root
Up grew its evil shoots
Upon on its limbs a wicked fruit
They say that deadly thorns await in bioluminescent briars
And an unholy outcast feeds the tree whomever it desires
A legion of twig blights
Rise in the dead of night
To sate their bloody appetite
But you never know if what they say is true
Until you go below and see what waits for you
They say from the ledge you smell the smoke of blazing dragon fire
And savage rats and goblins feast upon the bones of all those who inquire
But once a year we're told
A precious apple grows
Deep down within the twilight grove
