Zera's Shadow

Nobody knows, the terrors of this
Dreadful place beyond the clouds
Where just the bravest go, but never to return
Will Zera stay a secret till the end of time?
Seasons still change, but Zera remains a place of
Darkness consigned to the past
Its name now an obscenity to speak aloud
Its curse is stronger than ever before

Far across the ocean, out of sight and mind
There’s an island full of mystery
No clue, to what’s hidden inside
But there’s a thousand deadly reasons
Not to go anywhere near
It’s everything that you fear!

Hidden in Zera’s shadow
Where nobody dares to go
Hundreds of fallen heroes
Who marched into the unknown
They knew of the terrible terrors
But dead men tell no tales
The secrets of this evil place
Remain forever veiled!

Someone’s living in the shadows
Rescuing the secrets that were struck from history
But no-one else can see
That he could find the answers that could still set them free
Coming and going for weeks at a time
On a quest to uncover the truth
The only one who dares to stand upon the shores
And face his nightmares!

In his hour of darkness, searching for the light
It’s become this old man’s destiny
To learn and to stand up and fight
But still those thousand deadly reasons
Not to go anywhere near
Will stand in his way till he discovers what is

Hidden in Zera’s shadow
Where nobody dares to go
Hundreds of fallen heroes
Who marched into the unknown
They knew of the terrible terrors
But dead men tell no tales
The secrets of this evil place
Remain forever veiled!

Though in the end, when the legends are tales no more
Will come a story never told before
Some day when the chosen one arrives
We will be free

Saga begun
Who is the chosen one
Hear us pray come what may
Some Day Soon they could be no more

And so, the prophecies remain as legend
One mysterious traveller our only hope
Fowlens his name and Zeras his game
A man with untold stories of his own
But unbeknown to all there lives another
A boy longing to prove himself a man
His dreams riddled with the forbidden place
A boy, who’s destiny awaits

Hidden in Zera’s shadow
Where nobody dares to go
Hundreds of fallen heroes
Who marched into the unknown
They knew of the terrible terrors
But dead men tell no tales
The secrets of this evil place
Remain forever veiled!
