Rise And Fall - Dargaard

Lord Soth

Once an honoured knight

Of the order of Solamnia...

He built a stronghold, tall and proud

In the shape of his order's sign

Long time ago, he was disgraced from the gods

For failing his duties to restore order in the realm

He found the love of an elven maid

Let his minions kill his wife

The gods threw a fiery mountain

On the city of Istar

To punish the arrogance of the high priest

To The Cataclysm, to the end of the world

"Noctem, redde tuae, dux bone, patriae!"

Dawning in the lands of the damned

A new morning went by

In the darkened halls of the fallen one

As many others did

Condemned to await the end of all days

Guided by the cries of banshees

Dead and forgotten mortals

A life without light

A life without the warmth of blood

Rise and fall - an empire to lose

Fall and rise - a cataclysm to come

Rise and fall - the sea changed blood red

Fall and rise - for a new order
