The Green Maid - Battlelore

Green shades of the elven wood

Covers her face so pale

Those eyes like a stars in the night

Her hair like a golden flame

Gods of wisdom and fortune

Have blessed her with their gifts

No earthly creature can ever reach

A beauty like hers

Young elven knights come to her

There’s so much love to share

But still she’s awaiting the one

The one with a mortal way

They meet in the shadows

No eyes will see their embrace

Again she’s awaiting he to come

She’s so desperate her heart can’t lay

The evil has lurked in the realm

Dark creatures have come with the death

When black blade reaches her heart

And all the life is gone

He has lost his everything

Pain and agony, that’s all left now on

Way of the fate is cruel

Through tears he curses his gods

With grief he left those woods

His sorrow turns to hate

By his blood he swears the oath

He will fight it’s never too late

All his sacrifices

Can’t be for nothing

Way of the sword

Is the price they’ll have to pay

Her endless beauty

Stays forever in his heart

Her soul now in Mandos

But his love will never be gone
