The Necromancer

歌词

I. Into Darkness 

As grey traces of dawn tinge the eastern sky, the three travelers, men of 

Willow Dale, emerge from the forest shadow. Fording the River Dawn, they turn 

south, journeying into the dark and forbidding lands of the Necromancer. 

Even now the intensity of his dread power can be felt, weakening the body and 

stripped of will and soul. Only their thirst for freedom gives them hunger for 

vengeance... 

Silence shrouds the forest 

as the birds announce the dawn. 

Three trav'llers ford the river 

and southward journey on. 

The road is lined with peril, 

and the air is charged with fear. 

The shadow of his nearness 

weighs like iron tears. 

II. Under the Shadow 

Shreds of black cloud loom in overcast skies; 

the Necromancer keeps watch with his magic prism eyes. 

He views all his lands and is already aware 

Of the three helpless invaders 

trapped in his lair... 

Broading in the tower, 

watching o'er his land, 

holding ev'ry creature, 

helplessly they stand. 

Gaze into his prisms, 

knowing they are near. 

Lead them to the dungeons. 

Spectres numb with fear, 

they bow defeated. 

III. Return of the Prince 

Enter the Champion. 

Prince By-Tor appears to battle for freedom from chains of long years. 

The spell has been broken...the Dark Lands are bright, the Wraith of the 

Necromancer soars away...in the night. 

Stealthily attacking, 

By-Tor slays his foe. 

The men are free to run now 

from labyrinths below. 

Wraith of the Necromancer 

shadows through the sky; 

another land to darken 

with evil prism eye.
