Betrayal - Heidra

Once I sat upon the throne

A king of men was I

In the halls of my father

I ruled the land

Many a year ago now

The Lord of the North was I

I believed I would show

The kingdom its way to glory

Yet a darkness ever lurking

Soon I would know the truth

The cold embrace of winter

A harbinger of doom

The darkness came not from within

Treacherous eyes ever watching

Staring with great envy and yearning

The eyes of the betrayer

Selfishly he craved the throne

Wanted it for his own

Though not of my mother’s blood

The usurper was my brother

Betrayal — stabbed in the back

Deception — through dark sorcery

Bloodshed — a fight for our lives

Destruction — the only end

A battle for the throne began

In a fight for my life

Just a few faithful warriors

To fight by my side

Dark sorcery in the night

Enchanted the minds of men

Against overwhelming power

We fought in vain
