Rhysera the Fallen
The lyrics tell the story of a prophecy, the rise of dragons led by Rhysera “The Fallen One” (Vallah-kúl), and one final battle to decide the fate of the world. Rhysera knew of a prophecy that would lead to the end of the dragons, and with this knowledge, betrayed his bretheren in the ancient war between mankind and the elder dragon race. The prophecy said that when one dragon remains, it shall become immortal and the heir of the Sky Realm where the spirits highborne dragons reside, but the humans fearing the power of the dragons destroyed one of his wings before the final lowborne dragon was slain, preventing Rhysera from ascension, forced to live for eternity on the ground and unable to fly. In his wrath, he destroyed the Northern kingdom of Valyneer and took the keep as his new lair. Doomed to live alone for eternity and unable to enter the sacred realm, it is believed that Rhysera has entered into an eternal dream until he awakens to fulfill a new prophecy to seek vengeance on the humans that betrayed him.
Lyrics
The dragon’s return brings fire and ruin
Vas drakonus na-razúl keeluh fáeluh van dras
As all hope burns to ash by the Fallen One’s wrath
Il-sull vyris dravas’t fal tal-vas Vallah’kúl-tahl
Behind peaks of ash and a sky rusted with flames
In the kingdom of Valyneer, the Fallen One reigns
The land cast in darkness, now withered and dead
Shrouded in smoke, burning deep crimson red
For I have seen eyes of fire, burning dark red and gold
Bringing ruin and destruction, as the legends foretold
The dragon’s return brings fire and ruin
Vas drakonus na-razúl keeluh fáeluh van dras
As the world is set ablaze, all hope burns
Il-vas Ætra sindrafal sull vyris dravas
Fire and ruin When nights turn bright as day
Fáeluh van dras Mor-nyris tor fal il-rais,
As all hope burns Scorched by the flames
Il-sull vyris dravas korah-tal vos fáeris
The world is set ablaze And fire rains from Heaven
Vas Ætra sin’drafal Van fáeluh voll kal-Ceris
By the Fallen One’s rage Heroes will be forged
Tal-vas Vallah’kúl-tahl Khoros sáen’gar záylis
The dragon’s return brings fire and ruin
Vas drakonus na-razúl keeluh fáeluh van dras
As the nights turn bright as day, scorched by the flames
Il-vos nyris tor fal il-rais, korah-tal vos fáeras
When Rhysera awakens, all hope burns to ash,
Sarun Rhysera lúvinas, sull vyris dravas’t fal
As the world is set ablaze by the Fallen One’s wrath
Il-vas Ætra sindrafal, tal-vas Vallah’kúl-tahl
As the world turns to black and cold ashen grey,
And the darkness of night burns as bright as the day
When the sky fills with fire and ash falls like rain,
A Hero will rise and be forged in the flames.
