Expedition (into demise and victory) - part vii: finale (at the fortress)

Here we wait for the dawn
and behold the Fortress rise ahead
As the rays of the sunlight fall
the Legion's blood, it will be shed

I was chosen for the plan
and if we prevail we may survive
as the rest of the Legion's men
engage the Fallen one last time

There's a half-a-million foe
from here to the stronghold
Not a single one of us survive

Die is cast...
and twenty-hundred men fight to the last

Meanwhile the standard we found in the caves
is brought to the field and before the Fortress raised
And now we wait in the midst of the war
"Keep in mind that he has been killed before..."

As the light fades away
from the heathland phantom's way
In the end of all dismay
a new dawn will then await...

One display, one domain,
different fates and different names
But the soul - just one - remains,
a single everlasting flame
And every hero's one and the same...

Time goes by but some things last
And the standard did provoke his past
The field behind was turning red...
as we took his life and cut off his head
The Legion lay in pools of blood
the battle's lost but the War is won

The sun is rising from behind the fort...
By the sword we've turned the page of time
and the dark alliance of the Lords:
shattered with the mastermind.
Now the one who seemed to rule them all...
his remains lie headless on the ground
And the rest of them will face downfall
for they will be hunted down...

All, behold the Ruler of the Fallen Lords!
As foretold, we removed him from his throne
See his head in endless darkness fall,
Rule of death... it will reign this land no more

And after all the strife and after all the pain
at last there's grace upon the realm again
We live our dream once more and now it's on the wing
Eulogy for the slain we sing...
(and see a rising star)

Few percieve - a Being disappears...
As we know, it's taken place before
It is gone now - for a thousand years
We know what it's waiting for...
As the Comet rises, (it) takes new form,
then returns to rule and rearray
The eternal Cycle turns the world
as heroes rise... and fade away.
