Lament of the Dryads
Eveale
The ancient oak stands tall, Boughs twisted and broken, A partnership since time began, Respectful, Deep, Unspoken, Deep underground, Winding, dense and intertwined, Roots and mycelial network, Conspire to give each other life, The fruiting body, Spores unleashed, The Dryads sing their song, A lament for the decaying world, But hope for birth to come, The last leaf falls, Above the ground, All looks lost, Yet beneath the surface, The dance continues evermore, Until the Earth is burned.

The Enemy
Eveale
Deep in my heart There is darkness that eats away at me I try to cope To have hope But it’s hard when the evil is plain to see Take them down Break the crown Make them pay Take the corrupt and their power away By my sword Rule no more Feel my steel I can’t believe that this torment is real This is the power I hold in my hand I will remain invincible Cleansing the evil all throughout the land There will be no surrender for me Deep in my heart There is darkness that eats away at me I try to cope To have hope But it’s hard when the evil is plain to see All of this is in my own head Slay the demons or end up dead I can see them coming home I can feel it in my bones I must confront this reality No more living in this fantasy Face the real enemy The man there staring back at me No more escapology It’s me It’s me All this time I couldn’t see The real enemy here is me So I set him free To be Who I was meant to be I am free

Carniflora
Eveale
Beyond the safety of the borders of the Woodland Realm, It's said that foliage grows with roots reaching down to hell Beware the fragrance, sickly sweet designed to draw you in, Venture too close and you'll find yourself ensnared within, Carniflora, vegetational horror Tendrils wrap around you asphyxiation No escape from your demise Just fuel to photosynthesise Outgrown the taste of flies With human flesh, enormous size, And if you find yourself upon a leaf, with razor teeth, Don't make haste for you see, the trigger of the trap, Has now been activated, it cannot be vacated, Until you count twenty-three Carniflora, vegetational horror lose your footing on the rim, digestive juices wait within The more you move the more the walls close in around you, Accept your fate there is nothing more that you can do, Carniflora, vegetational horror Sticky sap, A deadly trap, the vine closes around you Carniflora, vegetational horror Satan's garden has you now emerging from deep underground

The Ritual
Eveale
Follow the flight of the raven To the beating heart of the woodland realm Into the night through the Grey Fen The Monarch and the Wizard, the procession helm Led by the light of the starshine An everlasting beacon in the midnight sky Drawn by the rite of the Moonshrine A temple hewn from stone in the days gone by Follow the flight of the raven Into the night through the Grey Fen Led by the light of the starshine Drawn by the rite of the Moonshrine Witness the might of the Moonshrine Join in the rite of the Moonshrine Hear of the plight of the Moonshrine

Pursuit Beneath the Moonlight
Eveale
Nature red in tooth and claw, Starving, hungry always more, In the darkness silent, poised The predator waits for a noise, A telltale sign of prey nearby, Scent on the breeze, a muffled cry, Pursuit beneath the moonlit sky The quarry runs but cannot hide Twist and turn between the trees But chaser keeping pace with ease Adrenaline through both their veins The pursued tires, attacker gains Terror, Panic Life at stake Turn the corner Leap the ditch Don’t look back Just be quick It’s gaining on you Reprieve A shelter tucked away Pause for a moment But can't stay A furtive glance the coast looks clear but danger's always lurking near From the shadows teeth and claws Blood is spilled heartbeat stalls limb from limb breathless calls The light leaves the eyes The prey dies the predator calls to the skies Success and failure One for each Beneath the branches of the ancient beech A symbiosis Old as time Pursuit beneath the moonlit sky

Our Flame
Eveale
Flying high At one with the moonlit sky Ride the wind Immortal, never gonna die While they may try to put out our flame We pay no mind Fly High Take My Hand We’ll Leave This Cursed Land We’re never going back It’s consigned to the past We shall be free at last I’m tearing off this mask Flying high At one with the moonlit sky Ride the wind Immortal, never gonna die While they may try to put out our flame We pay no mind Yet even here there are those Who oppose our right to exist We must resist We still persist Flying low And not sure which way to go Vulnerable Waiting for a sign to show Will they succeed To put out our flame? It haunts my mind

The Final Quest
Eveale
One last time, We walk this old line, We act like everything is fine, One more chance to shine, The final quest Once more put to the test And give it our best If this is to be our end We will go down With nought left to spend One last rhyme, We talk of old times, We act like everything is fine, Though we know in our hearts All turns to dark The final quest is here We must part I see your face One last time As I leave this place I know you’ll be fine Please do not cry now We all have to fly We’ve one last quest Before we lay to rest I feel the thunder coming down The rain is falling on the ground Nobody can make a sound There is no solace to be found

Enter the Woodland Realm
Eveale
As mist swirls Over the forgotten hills Moonlight permeates the leaves Creatures of the night Weave in and out Between the centenarian trees This is the Woodland Realm A land where many spirits dwell Protected by a spell of yore A home for all forgotten souls Mortals too are welcome here And neither does the other fear At one with the night In tune with the day The light and the dark To each they give way The dryads in the sycamore The Naiads of the streams The waters painted deepest blue The trees in luscious greens The Monarch of the Hillside The North East Wizard Tyrant Both preside this sanctuary For beyond this realm Lies the living hell Of Saldrava’s domain A place of only shadow Where tyranny and fire rule
