Song of the Witch Kingdom

Hark, my child, come listen close Let me tell you of tale Of a people cursed, a land destroyed Of a darkness that prevailed A witch kingdom once tall and proud Was ruled by Crochan queens Rhiannon fair was last of these For hatred stirred beneath The Crochan queens were thus betrayed By those of iron teeth Three days, three nights, the battled raged Til every heartbeat ceased And as she fell, Rhiannon last Stretched out a vengeful hand Heed my words and heed my curse Or ne'er return to this here land She said blood to blood And soul to soul Together this was done And only together Can it be undone Be the bridge, be the light And when the iron melts When flowers spring from killing fields Only then the land shall be won Five hundred years the land was dry All witches lost and scattered Blackbeak, Blueblood, Yellowlegs Their magic dead and shattered With Crochans gone, hope there was none To bind and break the curse Til silver-haired and crooked-hearted Manon learned of her birth Wing Leader and Blackbeak heir Devourer of souls The long lost child of Crochan blood With eyes of burning gold Both ancient queen, iron warrior With Thirteen at her side They crowned her with a ring of stars A people unified Blood to blood And soul to soul Together this was done And only together Can it be undone Be the bridge, be the light And when the iron melts When flowers spring from killing fields Only then the land shall be won In final days a king arose To bathe the world in blood High Queen Manon would not be cowed By his demonic flood With every clan of witches Met she mortals, met she fae And in the hills of Terrasen The last stand of light was made With magic dark and cunning Demons sought to breach the wall Should they have broken Orynth's gates Then all Erilea fall So Thirteen left High Queen to live And Yielded up their lives Blood unified, blood payment made Flower bloomed and dead land sighed Blood to blood And soul to soul Together this was done And only together has it been undone These the bridge, these the light Here now the iron melts Here flowers spring from killing fields Here now the land is won See flowers spring from killing fields See now your land is won
