Song of the Witch Kingdom

Hark, my child, come listen close
Let me tell you of tale
Of a people cursed, a land destroyed
Of a darkness that prevailed
A witch kingdom once tall and proud
Was ruled by Crochan queens
Rhiannon fair was last of these
For hatred stirred beneath

The Crochan queens were thus betrayed by those of iron teeth
Three days, three nights, the battled raged 'til every heartbeat ceased
And as she fell, Rhiannon last stretched out a vengeful hand
Heed my words and heed my curse or ne'er return to this here land

She said blood to blood and soul to soul
Together this was done
And only together can it be undone
Be the bridge, be the light and when the iron melts
When flowers spring from killing fields
Only then the land shall be won

Five hundred years the land was dry
All witches lost and scattered
Blackbeak, Blueblood, Yellowlegs
Their magic dead and shattered
With Crochans gone, hope there was none
To bind and break the curse
'Til silver-haired and crooked-hearted
Manon learned of her birth

Wing Leader and Blackbeak heir, devourer of souls
The long-lost child of Crochan blood with eyes of burning gold
Both ancient queen, iron warrior with Thirteen at her side
They crowned her with a ring of stars, a people unified

Blood to blood and soul to soul
Together this was done
And only together can it be undone
Be the bridge, be the light and when the iron melts
When flowers spring from killing fields
Only then the land shall be won

In final days, a king arose to bathe the world in blood
High Queen Manon would not be cowed by his demonic flood
With every clan of witches, met she mortals, met she fae
And in the hills of Terrasen, the last stand of light was made

With magic dark and cunning, demons sought to breach the wall
Should they have broken Orynth's gates, then all Erilea fall
So Thirteen left High Queen to live and Yielded up their lives
Blood unified, blood payment made
Flower bloomed and dead land sighed

Blood to blood and soul to soul
Together this was done
And only together has it been undone
These the bridge, these the light
Here now the iron melts
Here flowers spring from killing fields
Here now the land is won
See flowers spring from killing fields
See now your land is won
