Forest of Shadow
Written with Elanor McAylwyn
In the calm before the storm,
we entered the forest of shadow,
The trees were dark and torn,
as we entered the forest of shadow,
Our faces pale and drawn,
still we entered the forest of shadow.
Chorus:
And there she was, shining so bright,
Like a torch - a guide through the night;
Her eyes, her love, shining so bright,
Like our Queens - steel for the fight.
Ghostly shades around us all,
ensnared in the forest of shadow,
The hunters gave their call,
in the dark of the forest of shadow,
We were stalked and made to fall,
endless night in the forest of shadow.
Chorus
'Member those who went before,
the van in the forest of shadow,
The 22nd are no more,
all alone in the forest of shadow,
Our prayers cross the distant shore,
help those trapped in the forest of shadow.
Chorus
There we faced off all our foes,
crushed them in the forest of shadow,
Aventa and Anima,
now silent in the forest of shadow,
Gwion's realm no longer grows,
our forest no longer in shadow.
Chorus
