The ballad of Laucian

(sang in common)
  • The tyrant walked over the west
  • To the East he is headed
  • He believed his forces to be the best
  • A force of elf protecting their homestead
(Sang in elvish)
  • A lowly soldier wielding his fathers bow
  • raised in modesty
  • to the defense of others would go
  • in order to stop the enemy

  • The tyrant with 10 times the troops
  • making a show of arrogance
  • thinking about land to scoop
  • forgetting about the elves allegiances
  (sang in common)
  • over confident beyond belief
  • he was sure to be victorious
  • but during the battle he would find no relief
  • to have taught about victory he sure was delirious

  • The modest elf his target he found
  • the priestly robes of the tyrant did little to protect
  • The tyrant was thrown to the ground
  • once the arrow hit his neck
  (Sang in elvish)
  • House Galanodel was built
  • upon where the corpse hit the ground
  • no one could of had foreseen it
  • in history the modest man is now bound

  • A life full he lived
  • the city guard he led
  • with pride his chest was filled
  • the opposing troops from him fled
