The Hunt

Raise your shields 
Protectors of the realm                                      
Fend off the beast                                        
Press on

Cut with your swords
Stab with your spears
Ride upon your horse
Press on

Climb its scales
Peel away its skin        
Destroy the dragon  
Press on

Consumed by flame
Impaled by talons
Chewed by teeth
Press on

For your wives
For your children
For your king
Press on

Its blood for ours
Its flesh for ours
Its death for ours
Press on

Fall
Die 
Rise again
Press on
