The Warriors Prayer

Grand father, tell me a story!

All right, go and get your storybook

No, no, not one of those, a real story

A real story?

Yes! Tell me about when you were a boy

Well, then, I shall have to take you back with me

A long way in timeIt was my thirteenth year on a cold winter's day

As I walked through the enchanted forest

I heard the sounds of horses and men at arms

I felt compelled to walk on and find the place of these sounds

And when the forest did clear I was standing on a hill

Before me there was a great plane

Atoned the armies of the world,standing, waiting

I thought to myself, for whom or for what are they waiting?Suddenly a gust of wind come up from the north

There appeared a lone rider, holding a sword of steel

Then from the south came another, bearing a battle axe

From the east came a third, holding a spiked club

And finally, from the west a rider

Who wielded a great hammer of war, with them came their

Soldiers of death, followed by an army of immortals

They were few in numberBut the look in their eyes told all who beheld them

That they would leave this day only in victory or death

And there was a great silence

My heart began to pound, storm clouds filled the sky with darkness

Rain came and four winds blew with such anger

That I held fast to a tree

I watched the four riders raise their weapons into the air

Without warning, screaming their war cry they led the attackDown to the battle they rode

They met the armies of the world with a mighty clash

I could feel the groundshake, the earth drank much blood that day

Each of the four, was into himself a whirlwind of doom

When the smoke did clear, many thousands were dead

There was much blood and gore

Their bodies lay broken and scattered across the battle field

Like brown leaves blown by the windAnd I saw the four ride together to the top of the hill

While below them the soldiers of death assembled

All those who would now swear allegiance to them

And the four spoke the words of the warriors prayer

Gods of war I call you, my sword is by my side

I seek a life of honor free from all false pride

I will crack the whip with a bold mighty hail

Cover me with death if I should ever fail

Glory, majesty, unity, hail, hail,hailAnd as I stood and looked on, I heard the armies of the world

Hail them without end, and their voices of victory

Carried long and far throughout the landWell, That's it, did you like the story?

Yeah, it was great!

Oh, good, I'm glad, now off to bed with you

Grandfather?

Yes?

Who were those four men?

Who were they? They were the Metal Kings
