    Beautiful and sad is the tale I tell
    Of once devotion and liberty.
    Where winds sang of waves and wilderness,
    I left a world behind me.

    A palace forgotten,
    An island of sea and sky.
    A fortress in a tangled wood
    Where mist and memories cry.

    War bled into our dreams
    On that pale green land.
    Echoes of a paradise we could not keep,
    Flowers gone to seed in our hands.

    Swords sung in place of bards.
    Violence was the dance of sway.
    Madness was the chant of war;
    The only tune I could not play.

    Go, seek that which was stray,
    The wanderer, the solemn-eyed.
    Guided by the hand of the Rover,
    A hero once denied.

    Legend taunted, hidden, haunted,
    It will not end with one.
    For all that has passed, and all that will be,
    The tales have only begun.
