Second Song of the Founding

The moon sank low o’er shattered vale,

A hurricane, oh hope undone,

Embraced horizon's rising sun

And five strode forth into the gale .

 

[Chorus]

So raise the stone, and light the flame,

Sing the heroes’ deathless name.

From ruin's edge, a dream was born—

The dawn, the shield, the light reborn.

 

From distant sands strode Zaidan bold,

With potions strange and mustache gold,

He sold no lies, just truths in glass,

And turned despair to strength that lasts.

 

With eyes aglow and gears so fine,

Came H.E.L.I.O.S from forge divine,

A mind of steel, a soul of grace,

With H.E.L.P beside in silent pace.

 

[Chorus]

So raise the stone, and light the flame,

Sing the heroes’ deathless name.

From ruin's edge, a dream was born—

The dawn, the shield, the light reborn.

 

Mal'q the priest with radiant hand,

He sang the rite that healed the land.

The Dawnfather wept tears of gold,

As sacred spires rose proud and bold.

 

And in the heart of dust and storm,

Stood Ealam, leader, wisdom-worn.

His beard a banner, proud and wide,

He bore the people's hopes inside.

 

Last danced swift Tiabeanie’s blade,

Through haunted dunes and ambush laid.

A sun-elf’s fire, a ranger's eye,

She held the flame, she cleared the sky.

 

[Final Chorus]

So raise the stone, and light the flame,

Sing the heroes’ deathless name.

Five hearts beat as one that day,

And from their will, a city lay.

Let bells ring out, let children learn—

The tale of five, and their return.

From ruin's edge, a dream was born—

The dawn, the shield, the light reborn.
