TBCSS: S01E04 – Only the brave

For non-elves it’s very hard to face Blind Mountain’s weather conditions, it’s always sunny but still the air is so cold it feels like a million needles cutting through your skin. The castle sits on top of the mountain, the higher the heroes get, the harder it is to go on, so Alron invigorates Daltor and Dorus to keep them going. Rahed is 105 years old, he is the wisest man of Lastworld, in this adventure both his knowledge and weapon are needed!

The three get to the top, search for Rahed and find him in the middle of an archery tournament; in spite of the haste they wait and admire his technique and precision: the king takes aim with extreme laxity, he pulls the gold bow so close to his face that the arrow seems to be shot right from his eye, it rises into the sky, almost disappears embraced by the blue and then comes down with a hiss ending right at the center of the target.

Rahed gets furious, his kingdom’s prosperity is at risk and there’s no way he will let anyone destroy what he and his fathers before him had created; he is aware though that it’s not going to be an easy job, trials and pain are in store for them and only brave hearts can undertake this enterprise. Determined the group leaves heading to Icy Forest, one last member of the Alliance needs to be called: Queen Shena.

4. ONLY THE BRAVE

(Alron)
Making our way through the reign of the elves
We resolutely follow our path
The air is icy and sharp on this holy Blind Mountain
We must reach the dwelling of the oldest elf
We must never give up!
For our souls are bold and we donʼt know what fear is!

Arrows fly
From his eyes
The sunʼs hit by
A gold bow

(Rahed)
At my disposal my knowledge and life
To help you defeat this villain
In my heart burns only the red flame of justice
Power of arrows and glory of gods
Lead our way straight to the goal
For the peace of our lands weʼll be victorious

(Gruop)
Arrows fly
From your eyes
The sunʼs hit by
Your gold bow

Mighty Rahed king of the elves, yes we need your help
That holy black sword must be found for the glory of the lands

This war wonʼt break out
So precious blood wonʼt flow
May courage walk beside us for eternity
Only the brave!

Arrows fly
From your eyes
The sunʼs hit by
Your gold bow

Mighty Rahed king of the elves, yes we need your help
That holy black sword must be found for the glory of lands

This war wonʼt break out
So precious blood wonʼt flow
May courage walk beside us for eternity
Only the brave
shoot arrows in the sky
from their eyes

Mighty Rahed king of the elves, yes we need your help
That holy black sword must be found for the glory of lands

This war wonʼt break out
So precious blood wonʼt flow
May courage walk beside us for eternity
Only the brave!
