The Lay of the Iron Tower

The Lay of the Iron Tower is a song written by Patrel Rushlock.
==Lyrics==
From frozen northComes Vile power:The Evil One inThe Cold Iron Tower.
His black Vulgs raveDown through the Land;Before their fangsA bold few stand.
He calls the HordesOf evil kind;By terror and fearTo him they bind.
The Swarms invadeTo east and west.The allies standTo brave the test.
Dark Hordes comeAcross the plains.Many are felled;Cold Death reigns.
Liege is slainAt the keep.Few escape;Many weep.
Challerain falls;Winter is come;Terror rulesThe north Kingdom
The Hosts of the KingAre fettered in War,As under the MountainsStride the Four.
The Horror is felled;The Four win free;To Larkenwold come:The Land of Eld Tree.
South on the riverRide the Four;Then a swift gallopTo the Harlingar.
Vanadurin, Wellenen,Fly toward the Wastes.The Darkest Day comes;Make all haste.
Wellenen and Elves,Hold the way.The Host races northFor the Darkest Day.
The Heroes comeTo the Cold Iron Tower.Nine are chosenTo assault the Power.
An arrow is loosedWith no chance at all,Yet it fells the guardAtop the wall.
The ravine is crossed,The stone is climbed:Eight go up;One stays behind.
Under the wallCrawls the one,And wins to the towerFor the Death of the Sun.
The bridge is felled;The iron teeth lift;The strike force charges;The horses are swift.
Swords are inAmong the foe.Brave friends die;Sorrow and woe.
Darkness falls;The Doom has come.The Fate of the worldDepends on the one.
Through the window slitThe Wee One tries;Yet MyrkenstoneTraps Warrow eyes.
Evil chants fallUpon his ears,And Gyphon comesFrom Beyond the Spheres.
Sped by the bowOf the brave Wee One,The red arrow is loosedTo strike the Myrkenstone.
The Myrkenstone diesIn a flare of light,And the Wee One losesHis power of sight.
Yet Modru is slain,And Gyphon cast below;And the Dimmendark fallsTo the Sun's bright glow.
The Hordes fall deadBy Adon's Ban.And southward, too,The War is won.
Many praised the victory;Many mourned the slain;Yet all prayed that nevermoreWould War come here again.
Yes once there was great Evil,And darkling Shadowlight,But thanks to many a brave one,Outside the Sun shines bright.
