1. And The Legend Continues
2. The Unknown
Long ago in a land that's unknown, in an age of darkness and cold
You were raised with steel in your hands, the only way to survive
But one night you saw a sign
Leave your life behind
Go and seek your destiny, travel far away
Let no one stand in your way
Ride through the storms, through forests and thorns
Don't ever look back just ride on
Adventures ahead, you know you are prepared
To travel through the unknown
Where the legends takes its forms
You travel through forests and paths that's unknown, beware cause you are
alone
The powers of evil is all around, beware or you will be found
But you're not afraid to die
Your gods are at your side
So ride on to your destiny, travel far away
Let no one stand in your way
Ride through the storms...
Follow your vision, it shows you things that you have never seen
It shows you magic, and takes you places you have never been
A land that's so far away, beyond reality
A land that's so far away, beyond reality
Ride through the storms...
3. The Secret´s Revealed
Soldiers were coming far from the hills
To seek the magic we concealed
My people were slaughtered, taken as slaves
To work until their dying days
But I know that one day
I will see victory
That's why I'll follow you
That's why I won't give in
Yes I know that one day
I will see victory
That's why I'll follow you
That's why I won't give in
So now that it's taken, it won't be long
Before their powers will be strong
Using the magic that's in the book
Their reign shall grow, the dark will rise
But I know that one day
I will see victory...
And as we leave the place that was my home
That now is laid in ruins
I swore an oath to restore the book of light again
And take it were it is safe
From all greed, from the dark, and misery
So follow my footsteps, and have no fear
I'll be your guide through the shadows
Always be ready, always be sharp
If we shall survive in the dark
But I know that one day
I will see victory...
4. Eye Of The Storm
Snow, is falling so white and cold
The wind is growing in strength and in rage
The sky that once was so clear
Is now toning over our heads
The sense of magic is in the air
Can it be the work of the magic book?
Or just by the powers of nature
All that we know is that we just can't stay
Or we'll be caught in the eye of the storm
So run, run away
As fast as you can
To escape from the shadows
We need to find shelter
A place we can hide
From the eye of the storm
So run, run away...
There, far away in the mountain hall
Maybe there's somewhere we can hide
With thunder and lighting above us
We're running as hard as we can
Hunted by the magic of the damned
Can it be the work of the magic book?
Or just by the powers of nature
All that we know is that we just can't stay
Or we'll be caught in the eye of the storm
So run, run away...
Can it be the work of the magic book?
Or just by the powers of nature
All that we know is that we just can't stay
Or we'll be caught in the eye of the storm
So run, run away...
5. A Passage Through The Mountain
Deep in the mountain in darkness and stones
Their kingdom lies there unknown
Where it's been safe from the dangers and wars
No evil can come through their doors
Oh, they promised to help us all
They would guide our way
To the end of our goal
So into the dark, on paths no one knows
He guides our way through the dangers
Beware of your steps, one fault can bring death
And all your work in vain
So follow his steps because he knows the way
That leads us safe through the shadows
So don't hesitate, just do as he says
And we all will be safe in the end
Many hours has gone since we left
In darkness, it feels like a year
But he gives us courage and strength to move on
Don't worry, well make it you'll see
Oh, this road just seems so long
But we all came this far, and we will not stop now
So into the dark...
So into the dark...
6. Ambush
There came the word they were waiting for
Their warlord was screaming ATTACK!
Hungry for battle and enemy blood
They would never stop
So fire your bows while you still got the time
Kill as many as you can
Reduce the number of enemy troops
As they run towards you
You know this time you have to stand
There is no turning back
So gather the strength you received from the powers above
Now Kira is attacked by the enemy lord
Deadly combat with sword
And the power of the dwarf's double axe
It spreads fear among the trolls
The sorcerer is casting a ghastly spell aiming towards the goblin
And Siam strikes a deadly blow tearing the head of a troll
The battle rages furiously
And neither side will give in
So the chosen one gives a silent prayer to the gods
Give me the strength to be victorious
Give me the strength I need to live through this day
Give me the strength to be victorious
Give me the strength to fight for me and my friends
In the dark the screams of wounded soldiers fills the forest
And the smell of death spreads the air
Is it over, did they win, no one knows the answer
They have to wait until the sunrise
Hours of fear!
Give me the strength...
7. Loss Of A Friend
When I started on this quest I had you by my side
And when you traveled by my side I had no fear at all
But now when you have left this world I feel I'm out of strength
I feel that something's missing me, I've lost my dearest friend
But hear my words I promise thee, as you walk to the other side
Your bravery has not been in vain, I promise you my friend
So hear these words I say to thee
I know the story ends for you and me
But though I know we'll meet again someday
You know I understand, but I can't stand the pain
So hear these words I say to thee
I know the story ends for you and me
But though I know we'll meet again someday
You know I understand, but I can't stand the pain
So make this journey without me, take your place among the gods
I try to stay strong and believe in the words, of eternity
I hope the fire treats you good, and the smoke will show you home.
I try not to cry, I try in your honor, I'll be strong for thee
But hear my words I promise thee as you walk to the other side
Your bravery has not been in vain, I promise you my friend
8. Crossroad
As I started to make this journey I traveled alone
Not knowing what waited for me on the other side
But I always knew that this was destined just for me
Chosen by fate to battle the evil one
And no, no I can not change this prophecy
No, it's already written in my fate
And now that I've come this far into the unknown
This quest feels so hard to bear on my shoulders
And I cannot ask of you to join me to the end
But if I face this alone then I will die
Bu no, no I will not change my destiny
No, I shall follow the sign because
I, I know it's my destiny
And there is nothing here for me
So now, you got to choose you see
Stay here where you'll be safe and warm
Or to carry on
And if you stay then I go alone
Into the land of the dark
Together we're strong enough
There's no way we will lose
Together we'll carry on
United as one we will give them a fight
To battle were riding on
With steel in our hands
In glory we're riding on
Try to fulfill our quest
And no, no we shall not change our destiny
No, we shall follow the sign because
I, I know it's my destiny...
9. Kingdome Above
Many years I've sailed on the seas
And never once I've felt any fear
When I go into battle I fight to the death
For what I've done I have no regrets
And if I should be defeated and die
I hope I have proved my courage and might
And that I'll be welcomed to the kingdom above
Were the rainbow meets the sky
Because I know the story will go on
In our world and in the unknown
And I know the story that I've told
Will be here after I'm gone
The rules of my gods, I've always kept strong
The honour of battle, the power of steel
To fight without doubts, and never give in
Then my soul will always win
That's why I don't fear my end
Because if I die then my journey begins
To the place were the mightiest warriors shall gather
And answer to all the gods
Because I know...
Oh, just let it be true,
let me come to you
Show me that the legend is true,
and I'll surrender my steel to you
Because I know...
10. The Moment Of Truth
The sound of the horns gives shivers in me
Cause now it is time to die or be free
So run to the walls and enter the gate
That keeps you from entering the castle
The arrows are flying, bring death to our warriors
How are we gonna get in?
The sorcerer casts a mighty spell that bashes down the gate
Everyone get in and fight, fight for the kingdom of Kail
For the freedom of Kail we shall bleed
As we fight for victory
We can't stop, we can never give in
Or the world will be lost for our souls
As we run to the courtyard, the soldiers of darkness is blocking our path
They try to stop us from finding the way
To their lord and the magic book
But they can't stop us from getting through, one by one they are falling by
our swords
I pity those who are in our way, their lives will end today.
There is a gate that leads to the dungeons
A path to the heart of the dark
Try to stay calm, 'cause they can sense your fear
One mistake and you DIE
Why are all these voices calling me?
They want to take my soul, just keep away.
"Welcome my friend to my domains, welcome to your purgatory"
You are the one I have seen in my dream, you are the one I shall fight
"You will never defeat me my friend, you will die and your soul will be
mine"
I shall never surrender to you, I shall rather die
The Sorcerer's spell is protecting us all
And with his help, then we'll never fall
I feel the powers, the gods are at our side
I draw my blade and burst into the fight
For the freedom of Kail...
