they were advancing quickly,
the earth seemed to shake,

Before the Gates of Alahsar - Version - 2 - 27

The spearheads are keeping a tight formation,
pride keeping the body upright,
raking claws are sometimes raking home,

The vivid fantasy I'm invested in thwarting rhymes.
The woodland, as foreseen, had no limit to the sky.
