The Road to Vendilon

musical score
A nation lived in Vendilon
until the fateful day
A demonwraith in Vendilon
took all their souls away
What pain was felt in Vendilon
the dead will never say

Across the land from Vendilon
the Sorenese did mourn
Through pain and angst they suffered on
ashamed by their own scorn
Perhaps a quest to Vendilon
would allow their hearts to warm

Come walk with me to Vendilon
a Silvertongue did shout
Your sorrows bring to Vendilon
like rivers pour them out
Walk the road to Vendilon
tell the world what this is about

They left as one for Vendilon
and asked the weak and old
A token send to Vendilon
some memory to hold
So they can bring to Vendilon
wealth far richer than gold

They walked the land to Vendilon
to ease their nation's pain
They crossed the land to come upon
the bodies of the slain
They walked the road to Vendilon
to bring it hope again

At last they got to Vendilon
and set about their task
The dead piled high in Vendilon
they buried to the last
For bringing peace to Vendilon
no honor did they ask

The Sorenese left Vendilon
it was too full of hate
They could not live in Vendilon
the sorrow was too great
They did their part for Vendilon
to do more is another's fate

They walk the road from Vendilon
their shadows pass your door
They laid to rest in Vendilon
horrors worse than war
So when they pass from Vendilon
welcome them once more

Walk the road to Vendilon
again the call does ring
Highmen come heal Vendilon
your talents to it bring
Your efforts can make Vendilon
again a beautiful thing
