The Dwarves stood proud and strong in their new home on Elysium. They had struggled, fought, and survived. For many a year, they were plagued by enemies in Asulon; now, they have a new beginning. A chance for renewal and celebration. A king and hero of old has come back and for this occasion, song must have its place. Gungrim Doomforged stood among his friends and fellow warriors and began to sing a song of adventure, sorrow, and courage. This is A Tale of Flames and Forge.
A Tale of Flames and Forge
Hear now the sounds as dragons soar!
The flames are lit,
The fires roar!
Dwarves of old shall rise once more!
Take your axe and take your sword,
Sharpen mind and sharpen fist,
Travel now to the Dragon’s hoard!
Gold and riches for reward.
[Chorus]
Tarry not one second more!
Today we ride to war! To war!
A tale of flames and forge.
From the west, ride fair men,
Bringing peace and bringing kiss,
Fruits and presents from their glen.
Full of cowardice once again.
All they seek is to appease the dead.
Making deals with the foul beast!
Raise your axe above your head!
Their heads are bloated, full of lead.
[Chorus]
Tarry not one second more!
Today we ride to war! To war!
A tale of flames and forge.
The dragon comes and steals our home!
A great disgrace is this to me.
Pillage and plight as they roam.
Written in the ancient tome.
Bearing such a heavy load,
Keep the fires of warmth below.
Traveling ever down the dark road,
We won’t be stopped or even slowed!
[Chorus]
Tarry not one second more!
Today we ride to war! To war!
A tale of flames and forge.
