In a prison hollow, dark and lonely
Away long 'n' far from her one and only
In quiet shadows she waits forlornly
Her desires and dreams whisk her northernly
Where white aspen branches in cold winds blow
Warm birch fires on winter's chilled nights glow
In land where cold crystal clear rivers flow
Flowing from mountain peaks covered with snow
Her heart sings sweetly of days long gone by
When she and her love would escape up high
Above the golden fields of barely and rye
Before the dark days when fate forced good-bye
Now she sits and waits for her rescue time
When she and her true love would again climb
Up the snowcapped mountains in the springtime
When their love raises the dawn of peacetime
These were the days of war between men 'n' elves
When valor equals might and lust compels
When sorcery 'n' craft were for evil spells
But one flame can give light where darkness dwells
Lucius was a faithful man 'n' brave knight
Who was taught that true valor stood for right
Honesty and truth was his main delight
In dark times, he became the source of light
In golden lands of the south he was born
Into a world at war divided 'n' torn
Among the painful brier, thistle and thorn
Where once grew full crops of soy bean and corn
The crucible fires of war destroyed the land
Northern elves turned farms into dry wasteland
Men had chopped forest 'n' trees of their woodland
Destruction 'n' death were the price war demands
In this world Lucius sought to bring peace
From wartime's oppression, he sought release
He dreamed of days when valor would increase
When concord would prevail and war would cease
In a dream he heard a wind's whisper say
Go to the eastern land far far away
A realm that knows only night never day
In a cave a fair elfin princess lay
This was the one path to peace, he was sure
He was destined to be the elf's savior
From this one aim he vowed not to detour
This was the way of true knightly valor
To the dark and evil land he would go
Over mountains high and through valleys low
Armed with sharpened sword and fiery bow
To meet an evil foe he did not know
Dragons and goblins would stand in his path
Servants of the Dark Lord's infernal wrath
For he desired no end to his bloodbath
The Dark Lord was the cause of this warpath
Density 'n' Hope were on Lucius' side
That day hundreds of evil goblins died
Dragons flew away back to caves to hide
The design of the Dark Lord was denied
An elf princess was rescued by a man
Lenore would soon return to her love's hand
Ushering endless peace throughout the land
The light of valor had shone through one man
