Let it be known
That a day will come
Where fires will make the landscape
And tides will rise high
Flooding the grounds
And killing the sheep
And forests will crumble
As ash between fingers

Let it be known
That the moon will become the sun
And the sun no longer
And the stars will disappear
The clouds will fall to earth
And smoke shall be air
And those who breathe fire shall rule
And the knowing of life will be gone

Let it be known
That animals shall starve
And rivers dry
And beaches be covered with bracken
And insects take over
And the game vanish
And crops will wither
Hell shall descend upon life

The ones who breathe fire shall come
They will rule with claws of iron
And words of ice
And their law will be absolute
They will conquer the foes
And demolish the opposition

Let it be known
That a day will come
Where one
Not knowing their name
Will be found with nothing
But a sword
And their pride along
With them

One of the Gift
Who knows not their Gift
One with a Name
Who knows not their Name
One with a sword
Who knows not which sword
One with a task
Who knows not the task

They will return the waters of the earth
And raise the ground anew
And banish the ones who breathe fire
To the lands of the forsaken
