The Year is 2300, and Lady Karissa is standing on her balcony at Beltane Manor in the Dukedom and Territory on Bedford where she is now former Duchess of Norfolk and but she is Duchess of Bedford Territory and she is still Marchioness of Pembroke Territory and she starts to sing this great song written by The Great Miss B
"From a distance, the world looks blue and green
And the snow-capped mountains white
From a distance, the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope
It's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every man and woman
From a distance, we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance, we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every man
Odin is watching us
Odin is watching
Odin is watching us
From a distance
From a distance, you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance, I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting's for
From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man (every man)
It's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
This is the song for every man
And Odin is watching us
Odin is watching us
Odin is watching us
From a distance
Oh, Odin is watching us
Odin is watching
Odin is watching us
From a distance. "
