INTRODUCTION
Long time ago at very distant lands, there was a town filled of humble, kind and honest people. This town was called Yarlath, reigned by the King Henghur and his wife, the Queen Sharon.
The town had a royal messenger with the neighboring towns, called Theros, who actually was Henghur's sibling.
Yarlath, as many other towns in those lands, had an emblem; it was a sword, well known by its people as The Dark Blade, and a hymn was composed in its honour.
The town was formerly reigned by the king Lanstherian I, but he died after a tragic conquest by a dragon possessed with a devil spirit. Henghur was named king of Yarlath by its people after killing that unleashed beast, but... How everything began? Why Yarlath's emblem was a sword? Why this dragon attacked Yarlath? Let's begin this journey and get ready for it!
​
THE RUNAWAY
During Lanstherian I kingdom, Henghur was just a young man born in Yarlath. He always was a good person, ready to help his people at any situation. However, he felt in danger when somebody attacked him, and tried to kill him. Due to this, Henghur was seen in the need of defend himself...
​
[Storyteller]
Trying to find a way to hide himself
he will find a place where to stay
Living out his life up to the edge
he just need to find a getaway
​
Being killed by the time
being killed by the demons of his life
being trapped in deep trouble
being trapped in a devil wrath
​
Tortured by his consciousness
he killed a soul before
Running out from goodness
Getaways are just closed doors
Seeking out a truth beneath the blackened life he tries to drive
Thinking up he really needs to runaway
the time is gone!
​
Life searched for the darkness here
Life is as fair as God
Good crime is still evil even he just did it once
Everything you do in life, everything you think
life will always give you back everything you did
​
After that, Henghur felt in a deep state of guilt, he felt worried about he did, he had to kill someone to protect his own life, but eventually this led him to be tortured by his own mind, to feel chased by his thoughts, converting them into deliriums.
​
A DARK NIGHT (Beneath the Brightness of her Eyes)
Meantime, a strong and passioned love story between Sebastien and Sharon (a young couple from Yarlath) was revealed, but unfortunately Sebastien died, leaving Sharon alone and with a hopelessness feeling...
[Sebastien]
Remember that cold night that gave us glory?
Remember that cold kiss that kept us alive?
Remember when I told you "This is our story"?
Did you ever forget when I said that I'd give you my life?
​
But finally our past has been broken...
...and all of those promises won't be forgotten
We made our mistakes and we sealed our lives
Who would think that I won't be here for a while?
Remember again that I gave you my life...
...don't ask me how, don't ask me why
But face it, my love, I'm not here by your side
My soul is just wandering, dives in the sky
[Sharon]
Feeling alone without you
Feeling so empty without your love
Feeling my soul dying when I'm losing you
Feel in the depth of the darkest sea
Feel in the core of the burning sun
Thinking, will I be forever alone?
[Sebastien]
Holding those wishes alive!
Never forget that dark night before the brightest light of your beautiful eyes
Look at me now, I'm dead and you're still alive!
But never forget this, keep it in the bottom of your heart...
...I gave you my life!
​
Sitting alone in the darkness...
...just watching you and without understanding why you're not the same
You made so hard this game
Watching your eyes seeing another heart
Can't believe, why did you searched for the things that I never gave to you?
​
As every circle in life, Sharon thought she could fell in love again, but Sebastien, as spirit, was against this decision. However, he was unable to avoid it...
THE DARKNESS
Despite Sebastien's body was dead, his spirit remained in Yarlath. He only was able to talk with people through magic portals, but just for short times. So he talked to Sharon several times, but then he started to disturb and blame her. Henghur tried to help and save her from Sebastien's devil spirit...
[Sebastien]
Look at that red sky, it stills there anyway
A pale moonlight is now descending there
Night is falling down and you aren't here to see
when this bright moon is reaching a higher and better place
Will you see this night what's going on through your eyes?
​
[Sharon]
When I saw that night I just got some strong, bad feelings
Hearing voices
darkness attacks me
How I leave this?
​
[Sebastien]
Why did you leave your home place?
There is a clue I've never found?
Why everybody always tries to run away from their nightmares?
Crying them aloud!
​
[Henghur]
Fill that hole with hidden pain
there's no a safe getaway
​
[Sharon]
Why this disturbs me?
Why this attacks me?
Why isn't leaving?
But why is not killing?
​
[Henghur]
Climb up!
Raise up!
Fight 'till time is gone!
Never regret, never forget
but never feel stuck in past
Fly away!
You can't stay here feeling sorrow and pain!
It's impossible to stand like that and just go down
Fly away!
​
[Sharon]
I can tell you something...
...it hurts so bad and can't escape!
Please, don't run away from this place
I need you even more that what you can see in this face!
​
[Henghur]
I can help you only if you allow me to do
I can heal your wounds
I can warm your thoughts and make you feel home
​
[Sharon]
Howl!
To live or to die?
I feel like a blind!
My wounds will be cleared?
Is there no more hope here?
[Sebastien]
It seems that everything changed, but...
...do you know what I think?
There are many, many things I don't know about it, but...
...I don't care anymore, it's just your life, not mine...
I know you'll feel worse with this thought, but...
...I already feel better with that, and I don't feel regreted about it...
I need to do one last question to you...
...do you feel sunken in the darkness?
...I don't wanna know...
​
Sebastien decided to give up at that time, but he'd probably return later to Yarlath. Sharon felt kind of safe now with Henghur protecting her, but this won't be forever...
​
THE DEVIL WINGS OF HELL
The truth about Sebastien's unknown death and the life he carried on before was revealed to Sharon...
​
[Sebastien]
Must know I need something
Must know I have to think about it
I know it's hard to say but it seems there's no a getaway
​
I know it's burning myself
It's taking me to hell
I can't control this thought and I just wanna' make it real
​
I see greed in my eyes
I see some fantasies
I know I'm in the devil wings of hell and I'm not creep
​
It's time to seek some blood
It's time to burn a soul
It's time to kill some body...
...and fresh myself with black tears and sorrows
​
[Henghur]
Take off your hands from this life!
You mustn't kill any soul!
You know you're not God...
...so why do you still seeking lives to destroy!?
​
[Sebastien]
I saw greed in my eyes
I saw some fantasies
I knew I was in the devil wings of hell and I wasn't creep
​
Was time to get some blood
Was time to burn a soul
Was time to kill a body...
...and think about what my life will be in hell
​
Sharon, trying to assimilate it, felt so guilty, now that she knows her former love was a dangerous killer and tried to kill Henghur, her savior and best friend.
​
THE DARK-BLADE SYMPHONY
Then things changed and Sebastien decided to return to Yarlath.
​
I. Tale Beginning
[Henghur]
Starts upon a nightmare
and creates a fable with a whole life through
The fear inside is what feeds this legend within
​
This time Sebastien appeared not exactly as himself, but in a more devastating way...
​
II. Yarlath's Tragedy
[Henghur]
I can clearly remember a spirit I killed once
His shadow is still here?
​
[Sharon]
I can clearly remember a cold heart I loved once
Your soul is still here?
​
[Dragon]
I came to kill
You're gonna' die
Let's shatter the whole kingdom
My fire's dreadful
You're so weak
There's no way you can stop me!
​
III. A Journey for the Kingdom
[Storyteller]
The dragon that attacked Yarlath was possessed by Sebastien's devil spirit;
he attacked only once and then disappeared.
Unfortunately, he killed the king Lanstherian, leaving the kingdom with no lord, with no leader and with a strong hopelessness feeling.
After that, Henghur was seen in the need of avenging his king's life by killing that dragon...
​
[Theros]
Burned into ashes, a sad smell appears
There was a way, there's some clue here?
Henghur, my sibling, why this happened?
Is there no more hope here?
​
[Henghur]
Don't be afraid, we'll travel so far
We'll find out that dragon, we'll kill it!
We'll create an alliance, let's accept the challenge
Look at the stars, they'll fall someday
We'll cross the biggest valleys
We'll climb the highest mountains
We'll fight to the end for our kingdom
Our king must be avenged
The strength of this alliance must rise!
​
[Sharon]
This frightens me, it seems to be so dangerous
but we can't stay this way
That dragon must die and this town must survive
​
[Henghur, Sharon & Theros]
Don't be afraid, we'll travel so far
We'll get to the spine of where that dragon's hiding himself
We won't decline, we may be late but we'll be there
Follow us, this journey has begun
A journey for this town, for our kingdom!
​
Henghur, Sharon and Theros decided to form an alliance to chase that dragon, as well as to kill it, no matter if they had to do a whole-world crossing, they wanted Yarlath to recover peace back.
​
IV. The Never-Ending Crossing
[Henghur]
It's time to give our forces
and never decline
​
[Theros]
It seems this valley is the biggest one
It seems those mountains we'll never climb
It seems that forest's so deep we'll never turn back!
​
[Sharon]
Is this even possible to us all?
It seems the tomorrow won't come at all
We'll bring our lives to the town to save them all!
​
[Henghur]
It's time to break all of these barriers
and go to save Yarlath
​
Once they finished that endless route, they had no idea that a tower (filled with dark secrets) would appear in front of them...
​
V. The Chosen One
[Sharon]
We passed away the longest crossing ever
through valleys, high mountains, the deepest forest
All's behind ourselves!
​
[Henghur]
But now it's time for a bigger challenge
We need to get inside that tower
It's filled with lots of angels and demons
Is the dragon hiding himself there?
Let's see it!
[Dragon]
You'll never find the secret to destroy me!
​
[Henghur]
Look out everywhere!
At any second we just could die!
​
[Sharon & Theros]
United until the end!
​
[Dragon]
You have no idea of who will take you to death!
​
[Henghur]
Tired but straight we arrived
This tower's dark but we'll find the light!
​
[Sharon & Theros]
We'll bring peace back to our town!
​
[Dragon]
You killed me once
but this vindictive heart will bury all of you!
​
[Fairy]
Warriors from Yarlath, I'm here to tell you something:
the dragon's possessed, he only can be destroyed
by a hidden sword on this tower, known as The Dark Blade
[Henghur]
But how can we find it?
​
[Fairy]
That just depends of all of you
Only one can hold it on...
​
[Sharon]
One more challenge to this infinite deviance list
I hope that "chosen one" exists inside this empowered alliance
​
[Theros]
So now let's build all the random pieces...
the dragon's words were vindictive and cold
and Henghur killed a soul like that before...
[Fairy]
The answer lies in front of you...
​
[Henghur]
Let's wait for hope!
​
VI. Victory
[Sharon]
After many sleepless nights, we found that hidden sword, The Dark-Blade, and as we predicted, Henghur was the chosen one who could hold it on.
So once that dragon appeared in front of us, who actually was Sebastien's devil soul, a long and very intense fight started out...
We only could see them fighting 'til death for the victory...
​
Sailing through an ocean of tragedy
where nightmares become real
where a friend is in real danger
​
[Theros]
Being unable to give some help
this feels just like hell
but hope never abandoned us
​
[Sharon & Theros]
Heaven has revealed the light
the light that will bring us peace back
and hope still exist in this place, in our hearts
Lakes of blood, crossing for life
Lives that were lost, lives to be saved
and our town will have the king that deserves
​
[Sharon]
Angels choir sang the divine words
the words of eternal hope
eternal hope for our Yarlath town
​
[Theros]
Henghur brought us peace back
Brought us safety again
We'll finally have our king
Our new kingdom will rise
​
[Henghur]
Riding through the sky
we spent a lot of time
thinking that nothing bad would affect our lives
Riding through the wind
I can't still believe
that finally we won this last battle
This is ours, victory!
​
[Henghur, Sharon & Theros]
Then the runaway had no reasons anymore
to keep running out
We flew through the past, behind the black storms
that dark night, that darkness just went away
The wings of hell just threw madness off of here
This story of our lives brought us a new sunrise
As night whispered at our ears before
This is ours, victory!
​
[Sharon]
The time to return has come
Let's get back home
Yarlath is waiting for its new king, savior and hero

How everything will go on after this ending? Yarlath will have peace forever?
They won the last battle, but they don't know if destiny is by their side...
