Confrontation

from Shadows of Lonehill by RAVENTHORN

/

lyrics

“I’ve had a vision”, - he told me
“And in that vision, I have seen
The situation you are in right now

I should have killed you for my men
Who’ll never see day’s light again
But fate has got another plan for you”

“And may I ask what plan that is?
In this peculiar life’s twist
Why should I trust a man I do not know?”

“Your options, I’m afraid, are scarce
From you I would expect no less
Than to put the regent’s soul to rest

You see, our interests aligned
This bastard’s death’s been on our mind
Since he decided to frame both of us

We’ll save your sister from the claws
Of Lonehill Cleavers, and of course
You’ll meet her when the righteous deed
Is done”

With a plan defined
Cult was on its way
Revenge captured Seth’s mind
Like hunter’s thirst for his prey

They split in two crews
Heading to Lonehill Town
When the morning dew
Gleamed from untrampled ground

Cultists rode to the street
Where the gang was settled
Butchers will turn to meat
And treated like their cattle

Meanwhile Seth rode forth
To the regent’s palace
To show what he’s worth
With his new-found allies

When Seth arrived
By the gates he faced
Two guards who let him through

Freely he
Reached regent’s suite
Knocked four times
Not hesitating

Unwary
Regent let
Him enter
What a grave mistake

Smugly, he
Asked Seth if
He had come
To bow down before him
To give up his yearning
To what Seth replied: “No”

Vulture-eyed lord regent
Spit out spiteful curses
“Have you lost your reason?
Obey and beg for mercy

One more hasty move can
Get Irene flayed alive”
“No more threats, you sick man
You stirred up the beehive
Cleavers are dead
Beheaded by my allies
Raven Cult”

Staring back in utter fear
Regent called out for his guards
“Scream all you want, they won’t hear
You from the realms of hell

Your hounds were foolish enough
To let me inside
Their final seconds were rough
To fight two cultists they tried

It was then he realized
That he lost this game of chess
In last try to save his skin
His surroundings he assessed

Then reached out towards his gun
But this move has been foreseen
Deftly Seth cut off his arm
Time has come to pay for sins

Regent tried
To crawl away
But Seth’s
Kick stopped him at once

Our hero grasped
Victim’s neck
Regent
Coughed up blood on his face

“I should have
Killed you back
Then” viciously
He grunted at him

Scornfully
Seth looked at
Him one last
Time before he pushed him
Out the open window
And noble blood soaked the earth
