Garth's troops cross a stone bridge over a chasm
Marks that the thieves would never have fathomed
From old ruins they emerge, with weapons drawn
But almost all find their enthusiasm gone
The ex Shifting Sands are prepared to stand
One holds their backup plan in hand
But the other three would prefer to flee
But the creature is pinched and starts to scream
All present seize up, save for the ex Sands
Spared the raw anguish by enchanted bands
No concern for their unprepared allies
Garth can't rest upon the rage in his eyes
Is this what our kingdom has become?
(It has become)
I will never succumb to this scum
(To this scum)
They claim the soldiers, money and weapons too
They joke and gloat as they do
"Would his hammer be too unwieldy?"
"Only one way to know, I guess we'll see"
The ex Shifting Sands approach the King's Right Hand
Who stiffly topples forward just as he planned
His immense weight crushes the tiny beast
Freed from paralysis, restraint released
Garth leaves the creature's keeper
With no chance to beg
With bare hands his skull is crushed like an egg
Returns Wade's bow and says
"Let no one get away"
Promptly bludgeons one cousin
The other is left in dismay
Drops to his knees and pleads and screams
Garth offs the other ex Sand
Who thought up this scheme
Wade pins the fleeing kobold
To a stone wall by his tail
A calculated shot, the restraint set to fail
The kobold drops his tail, runs as hard as he can
Wade points Garth's focus to the begging man
But Garth sees the fleeing reptile
And he hurls his weapon
Not a direct hit but still he is undone
Wade had seen the fear in his eyes
Tried to grant a chance for life
Now hearing a cousin's cries
Wade talks down his fierce ally
Soldiers will escort him back
The sole remnant of this attack
The rest settle for the night
Garth gleams in the day's last light
Is this what our kingdom has become?
(It has become)
I will never succumb to this scum
(To this scum)
Is this what our kingdom has become?
(It has become)
I will never succumb to this scum
(To this scum)
