The Doom of House Aelith

Beneath the cliffs where cold winds cry,

And rivers meet the sky,

There shone a star in Aelith's keep,

A light no night could die.

The center is where balance lies,

Where shadow bends to flame,

The vow was sworn, the light was born

And none recall their name.

The storm came down in crimson hue,

The halls were torn and still,

Yet silence kept the tale half-told,

Beyond the northern hill.

The center is where balance lies,

Where shadow bends to flame,

The vow was sworn, the light was born,

And none recall their name.

One soul escaped through ash and rain,

With starlight in their hand,

They walked the road where rivers meet,

And vanished 'neath the land.

The center is where balance lies,

Where stillness guards the flame,

The vow was sworn, the light was born,

And none recall their name.

So sing, O hearts of Mauribon,

Of Aelith's quiet grace,

Their winds may sleep in shadow's keep,

But light still knows its place

The center is where balance lies

Where shadow bows to flame

The vow was sworn, the light reborn,

And all shall know their name.
