The Hunt

Raise your shields Protectors of the realm Fend off the beast Press on Cut with your swords Stab with your spears Ride upon your horse Press on Climb its scales Peel away its skin Destroy the dragon Press on Consumed by flame Impaled by talons Chewed by teeth Press on For your wives For your children For your king Press on Its blood for ours Its flesh for ours Its death for ours Press on Fall Die Rise again Press on
