A Thousand Towers White

["The coast of the Southlands stretches countless miles, with jagged rocks like a Dragon's teeth, hopeless marshlands and many pirate coves of sea-borne bandits. But such was not the sight that the Islander saw when he finally laid his weary eyes upon dry land. The fabled beaches just a day's ride south of Westmar with their soft dunes seemed so much like those he had left at home, or even of the Ivory Shores which his uncle had once seen in his youth. Utterly exhausted when he touched upon firm ground and still mourning his lost friends, he could still barely contain himself. For he was well aware what mighty a sight and many-spired radiancy that lay to the north; the jewel of the west, the pride of men - the Royal City of Westmar"]I raise up my head and gaze upon silvery seashores

with the sand on my feet and with the sun on my back

For days the coast leads my journey shining in the misty dew I seeThere, a thousand spires

Glowing like fire in the sun

I see them rising o'er these open plains

And I know I shall remember forever

how I saw a thousand towers whiteWhen young I was told

Of a city of might and of honour

An empire's crown, as powerful as it was feared

And now as I stand before her

I set my eyes upon a waking dreamThere, a thousand spires

Gleaming like ice in the sun

I see them rising o'er these open plains

And I know I shall remember forever

how I saw a thousand towers whiteMirrorlike gates stretch before me

blazing serene in the dawn

Split open for vast lines of many men

I gaze beyond in bewildermentShattered hearts and dreams

crushed by grievous tyranny

Crumbling homes and screams

among corrupted industry[Solo: Mrck]A sinister reign

brother is turned against brother

irrational fear enslaved the dwarves and the elvesWhat lies beyond such opression?

shining towers cast a shade on meThere, a thousand spires

Glowing like fire in the sun

but I see no honour in these broken men

yet I know I will remember forever

how I saw a thousand towers white
