The Sacred Quest

Journey starts by the southern borders

Oh Valerie, I'd like to stay

But guardians present my silver stallion

Druids bless the Sword of Faith

Travel through the endless desert

Horizon line in the haze

Strange formations in the western ocean

Distant shadows on my way

Whispers in the night send shivers down my spine

Wise men never dared to speak its name

Dark magicians dwell in a dimension of a sin, play their game

Follow clouds to the land of darkness

Everlasting ice on the northern coast

Giants turn to stone my silver stallion

Oh precious sword, destroy this wicked ghost

On the wings of eagles to the sunrise

Mountains of the east, I rest my soul

The hours of the morning and Mei-li with eyes of jade

She ties me up with the chains of gold

Valerie, I see your face before me

And I hear your prayers loud and clear

Will this Sword of Faith have the strength to break my chains? The end is near

Highway of the Dead into the center

Signs are telling me that I'm too late

Running through the dungeons where the demons hold their court

I close my eyes and raise the Sword of Faith

Am I too late? I break the gate
