In the abyss of the frozen north
Names and songs dance in the blizzard
Untamed wilderness breeds new opportunity
Insidious ice and snow cake the frozen gloom
Tightly knit like the fur of their coats
Young hunters harvest the fresh kill
Until the snowy fangs emerge to feed
Paddling through the frozen floes
In eternal sun, eternal night breeds chaos
Kin step into a perilous world
Awash with striking tattoos from lore
Left to the farthest edge of the turtle island
Embers emanate across icy peaks
Under the shade of a brimming visor
The shore brings new life from the blue
