Amongst caverns
Drifting by dripstone
A scaly gust pervades
The cacophonous silence
Within roosts
Pil'd atop the pine
Resounds the song
The pinnacle of created beasts
Floating in the wind...
Snapping pasts sands...
A behemoth's tail
Amongst caverns
Drifting by dripstone
A scaly gust fades...
Within roosts
Pil'd atop the pine
The dragon's essence...
Ah!
Slab and stone crown'd with roots
Vines curled to the roof
An abode of old
Spiraling into the treetop
Leaves brushed against the sills
Brick upon log
Mortar upon brick
Fauna upon mortar
Such magic!
Never before...
The sun peaks through the wood
Enhancing its essence
Its insides...
Hidden!
Pages fly through the windows
Potions tumble out the gate
Ah!
Slab and stone crown'd with roots
Vines curled to the roof
An abode of old
Spiraling into the treetop
Between two trees lies a weapon of old
Sunlight dashes through
Its features become known
Its head, pure steel
Its pommel, that of iron
The Mark of Jerusalem engraved
Its face, spattered in daemon blood
Twisted along, from pommel to shaft
The hair of saints
Untainted and pure
Between two trees lies a weapon of old
The adventurer grabs hold...
