Show us the Way

The song was provided by Tiana i Zaydan i Riqueza to Dream-Singer - a herald of Lashonar, who requested four songs of the High Bard of the Empire.

Lyrics by Tiana i Zaydan i Riqueza

Beneath the Assavean Sun, I call out to the free The heroes of the Empire, will you send your aid to me We will rise up, like the orcs of old and overthrow our masters But soon we saw our uprising would lead us to disaster

Beneath the Assavean sun, don’t look away, don’t look away Heroes of the Empire Come, will you show us the Way?

Beneath the Assavean sun, some came to join our cause The heroes of the Empire came, they landed on our shores The sailors came to lift us free, but the soldiers came to chain us They came back with our slave-masters to beat us and restrain us

Beneath the Assavean sun, don’t look away, don’t look away Heroes of the Empire Come, will you show us the Way?

Beneath the Assavean sun, our slavery remains The heroes of the Empire, they returned me to my chains I cry out, who will help us, to old Maracoss we flee So, heroes of the Empire, will you come and fight for me?

Beneath the Assavean sun, don’t look away, don’t look away Heroes of the Empire Come, will you show us the Way?
