The Battle of the Ivory Plains[]
Booklet Lyrics[]
- "After a journey that seemed endlessly long, they finally set foot by the ivory plains...but the atmosphere around this place was horrific as they looked out across the desolate landscape!!!
Here a world's fate shall be decided.
A camp was set up by brink of the plains, everyone rested and polished their swords, singing hymns by the fire about ancient battles from every other hundred yearbattle, fantastic stories of loss and gain.
T'was not a good night's sleep they've had, awakened by battle horns in the far distance...they froze in fear!!!
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN"
Early morning with a scent of death in the air
The first ray of light breaks free upon the hills
We all gaze upon the distant plains
To see a dark line filling the horizon
The hordes will charge down on us like a thunder storm
We will be heavily outnumbered
Oh, bewildered horizon
The ground will be drenched in red
All nature dies out
The horns sound for the battle to begin
As bodies clash together and steel ploughs through flesh
Salutations to the end with death we dance
We fight for our lives like a whirlwind
The elves with arrows that covers the sky
With flails and axes the dwarfs shout the battlecries
But it seems that we don't stand a chance
Oh, bewildered horizon
The ground now is drenched in blood
All nature's died out
Endless the battle seems
(Solo: Olof Mörck|O.M]])
(Solo: Elias Holmlid|E.H]])
(Solo: Nicklas Magnusson|N.M]])
As my companions go down one by one,
I know that this must end before the day is gone
With fear and rage we make our final assault
But they are flanking us, crushing us and killing us
Then I feel a pain and it's flashing before my eyes
Everything turns black
Oh, darkened horizon
The sun will shine no more
All light has died out
We could not save dragonland this time...
