## Lyrics (finalized)

Born in the time of darkness and evil under the sign of God

glory's my mother fire's my brother sword my holy law.

Into the land of chaos and hate there is no place for me

and for the conquest of justice and honour I will use my steel

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.

The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Rage in my heart crossing the forest riding my black horse

Across the valley along the river where the hot blood flows.

Over the lakes and over the hills I follow the call of the wind

uphold the legend and for my princess I will fight and win

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.

The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Lord of the thunder please be my guide

before and after my last ride

I'll be your soldier serving the light

riding forever alive and proud

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.

The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Lord of the thunder please be my guide

before and after my last ride

I'll be your soldier serving the light

riding forever alive and proud

## Lyrics (demo)

Born in the time of darkness and evil under the sign of God

glory my mother fire my brother sword my holy law

Into the land of hate and sorrow there is no place for me

and for the conquest of justice and honour I will use my steel

Holy flame burn again till I lose my force for the eternity

cause I want live serving my king fighting the hordes of the beast

Rage in my heart crossing the forest riding my black horse

across the valley along the river where the hot blood flows

Over the lakes and over the hills I follow the call of the wind

soon for the legend and for my walkyrie I will fight and win

Holy flame burn again till I lose my force for the eternity

cause I want live serving my king fighting the hordes of the beast

Lord of the thunder please be my guide

before and after my last ride

I'll be your soldier serving the light

riding forever alive and proud

Into the land of hate and sorrow there is no place for me

and for the conquest of justice and honour I will use my steel

Over the lakes and over the hills I follow the call of the wind

soon for the legend and for my walkyrie I will fight and win

Holy flame burn again till I lose my force for the eternity

cause I want live serving my king fighting the hordes of the beast

Lord of the thunder please be my guide

before and after my last ride

I'll be your soldier serving the light

riding forever alive and proud

Holy star bright forever show to me the right way to win

cause I want live serving my king

Lord of the wind

Fighting the hordes of the beast

## Lore

Waiting for the night the mighty warrior rides around Elgard to calm his thoughts. Suddenly, on the return journey, echoes of a distant thunder reach his ear and the wind begins blowing wildly. Adrenalin fills his veins and, raising his sword to the sky, the hero recites his prayer.
