Eunacious
From the seed of a fairy, from the heart of a beast
emerges a prince with the sting of bee.
Along treads the warriors;
strong, mighty, elegant, yet clever.
As the castle burns, as the peasants weep, as the river blackens the warriors creep.
The fairy, the beast and the King to be;
along treads the family, due east.
To a land unknown, to a land so great, to land so powerful;
Eunacious, to whom the land behomes.
Along treads the King
to a land unknown, to a land so great, to a land so powerful;
Eunacious returns to home.
Welcomed by a land and by a people
who fail to know his worthiness.
Along treads Pathos,
the Master of the land, the Master of the people.
War! War! War!
Along treads the warriors.
Along Treads Eunacious.
The war must begin, to claim the unanimous.
The warriors scream loud, the peasants scream louder,
Eunacious screams loudest,
"Give back my home! Give back my land! Give back my hope!"
As the castle burns, as the warriors weep, as the river blackens Eunacious creeps.
The fairy, the beast, and the King to be
reclaims the land that was meant to be
To a land once known, to a land so great, to land so powerful;
Eunacious, to whom the land behomes.
