Hey - ah
Hey - ah
Hark, my child, come listen close
Let me tell you of a tale
Of a people cursed, a land destroyed
Of a darkness that prevailed
A witch kingdom once tall and proud
Was ruled by Chochan queens
Rhiannon fair was last of these
For hatred stirred beneath
Hey - ah
Hey - ah
The Crochan queens were thus betrayed
By those with iron teeth
Three days, three nigths the battle 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"
Hey - ah
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
Hey - ah
Hey - ah
Five hundred years the land was dry
All witches lost and scattered
Blackbeak, Blueblood, Yellowlegs
Their magic dead and shatterd
With Crochans gone, hope there was none
To bind and break the curse
'Til silver-haired and croocked hearted
Manon learned of her birth
Hey - ah
Hey - ah
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
Hey - ah
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
Hey - ah
Hey - ah
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 Tarrasen
The last stand of light was made
Hey - ah
Hey - ah
With magic dark and cunning
Demons sought to breach the walls
Should they have broken Orynth's gates
Then all Erilea falls
So Thirteen left High Queen to live
And Yielded up their lives
Blood unified, blood payment made
Flowers bloomed and dead land sighed
Hey - ah
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
Hey - ah
See flowers spring from killing fields
See now your land is won
Hey - ah
