Born on the battlefield, heat of the melee during a Vanir raid Before he had lived to see fifteen snows his name by council fires was praised Intent to colonize southern Cimmeria, Aquilonia built Venarium Out of the northern hills swept the Cimmerian steel tasting Aquilonian blood In true berserker form he fought on and on beside his Cimmerian kin The Aquilonians driven back across their frontier He returned for a while to his tribe In vague dreams of conquest and kingdom do you wonder what they mean Distant voices forever calling In Fates Eye A King He spent time with a band of Aesir He raided the Hyperboreans The Hyperborean castles were ruled by wizards called by the fearful Witchmen He led a foray against Haloga Castle to free the daughter of Aesir chief The mission a success, but as they fled they were taken by an army of living dead Toiling away at night he ground his chain until it was weak enough to break One stormy night, whirling the heavy chain, he slayed his way out into the rain In vague dreams of conquest and kingdom do you wonder just what they mean Distant voices forever calling In Fates Eye A King Tyrants and wizards, they fall before you and what your wyrd will bring It was written in the furthest stars In Fates Eye A King Swordless and fleeing into the mountains He was chased by a pack of wolves He found refuge in a cave Before him sat the corpse of an ancient chieftain upon a throne Across his knees was a bronze sword grasped by huge hands of ancient bone When he seized the sword the corpse came to life He fought with everything in him Escaped armed this time In vague dreams of conquest and kingdom do you wonder what they mean Distant voices forever calling In Fates Eye A King Tyrants and wizards, they fall before you and what your wyrd will bring It was written in the furthest stars In Fates Eye A King Witches and warlocks, women and wine Songs sons of men will sing Your life becomes legend, legend becomes myth In Fates Eye A King Your wyrd never ending it turns the wheel do you Know the Riddle of steel Never knowing what the next day will bring In Fates Eye A King
