(Verse 1)
In the shadowed hills where the giants roam,
Near the Wizards’ Lab, the wind did moan.
Stood Zenith Crossblade, warlock bold,
Half-orc fierce with a story told.

Beside him Rezo, wizard wise,
Dragonborn cleric with sharp, knowing eyes.
And Karambit, the wolf so dire,
Loyal and fierce, their howling fire.

(Chorus)
Oh, the hill giant roared, but the heroes stood tall,
With blade and magic, they answered the call.
And Karambit snapped, with comical grace,
Biting for groins but missing the place.

(Verse 2)
The hill giant charged with a bellowing cry,
His club swung wide to blot the sky.
But Zenith stood firm, his magic did flare,
A radiant wall glimmered, blazing the air.

Rezo called forth his spectral blade,
A shimmering weapon in battle arrayed.
It smote the giant, cutting deep,
While Zenith’s blade found wounds to reap.

(Chorus)
Oh, the hill giant roared, but the heroes stood tall,
With blade and magic, they answered the call.
And Karambit snapped, with comical grace,
Biting for groins but missing the place.

(Bridge)
The giant stumbled, the fight near done,
But Karambit thought, “I’ll have my fun!”
The wolf lunged low, teeth set to seize,
But his aim fell short—oh, much to appease!

Rezo laughed as the giant fell,
The ground did quake, a thunderous knell.
Yet humor turned wild, as Zenith cried,
“Hop on!”—and a dire wolf ride was supplied!

(Verse 3)
On Karambit’s back, Zenith did climb,
Grabbing Rezo’s collar in rhythm and rhyme.
The cleric flailed, his robes askew,
Bouncing along in a wild debut.

Karambit raced with power untamed,
Through forest and field, where none complained.
Rezo protested, his dignity bruised,
While Zenith laughed, so wholly amused.

(Chorus)
Oh, the hill giant roared, but the heroes stood tall,
With blade and magic, they answered the call.
And Karambit snapped, with comical grace,
Biting for groins but missing the place.

(Outro)
Now bards shall sing of the giant’s fate,
And Zenith’s blade, so strong and great.
Of Rezo’s ride and Karambit’s pride,
In tales of laughter and magic beside.

So raise a cup to the dire wolf's might,
And Zenith’s wall, that shone so bright.
For heroes fight, and heroes jest,
And in their bond, we are truly blessed.

Oh The Hill Giant Roared


(Verse 1)
By the river's gentle flow, where the stories always grow,
Lies a town of sturdy stone and timber fine.
Daggerford, oh, proud and free, where the brave and bold shall be,
Guarded walls and hearts that brightly shine.

(Chorus)
Daggerford, oh Daggerford, the jewel by the stream,
A haven strong, where heroes long, to live and chase their dream.
With the market’s bustling cheer and the keep so proud and near,
Daggerford, we’ll sing your name sincere!

(Verse 2)
Through the gates the merchants stride, with their goods and tales of pride,
While the blacksmith hammers steel both true and grand.
From the temple’s holy light to the tavern’s fires bright,
Daggerford’s a beacon in the land.

(Chorus)
Daggerford, oh Daggerford, the jewel by the stream,
A haven strong, where heroes long, to live and chase their dream.
With the market’s bustling cheer and the keep so proud and near,
Daggerford, we’ll sing your name sincere!

(Bridge)
When the storms of fate do rise, casting shadows ‘cross the skies,
Daggerford will hold, its courage won’t abate.
For its people stand as one, ‘til the final battle’s done,
Steadfast is their love for home and fate.

(Final Chorus)
Daggerford, oh Daggerford, the jewel by the stream,
A haven strong, where heroes long, to live and chase their dream.
With the market’s bustling cheer and the keep so proud and near,
Daggerford, your name we hold so dear!

Ballad of Daggerford

[Verse1]
In the Misty Forest, where the tall pines sway,
East of the Trade Way, travelers often stray.
South of Daggerford, in the morning's light,
Elves guard their homeland, hidden from sight.

[Verse 2]
Mists weave through branches, a silvery shroud,
Whispers of nature, neither harsh nor loud.
Spruce trees stand sentinel, ancient and wise,
Sheltering creatures beneath Faerûn's skies.

[Chorus]
Rangers on patrol, druids in their groves,
Wildlife abounds where the Delimbiyr flows.
In this realm of beauty, peace intertwines,
The Misty Forest's charm eternally shines.

The Misty Forest

(Verse 1)
In the heart of Faerûn, where shadows creep,
There’s a drow with a heart, where secrets sleep,
Drizzt Do'Urden, with scimitars gleam,
He fights for a world where he’s more than a dream.

(Chorus)
Oh, heroes rise, in the dark of night,
With courage and strength, they bring the light,
From the Underdark’s gloom to the open skies,
They fight for justice, where hope never dies.

(Verse 2)
Elminster the Sage, with wisdom so old,
A master of magic, his stories unfold,
He walks among gods, yet stands with the weak,
A legend in shadow, a champion unique.

(Chorus)
Oh, heroes rise, in the dark of night,
With courage and strength, they bring the light,
From the Underdark’s gloom to the open skies,
They fight for justice, where hope never dies.

(Bridge)
Laeral Silverhand, with a heart of fire,
Guides the Harpers, never to tire,
Wulfgar, the barbarian, hammer held high,
With friends by his side, touches the sky.

(Chorus)
Oh, heroes rise, in the dark of night,
With courage and strength, they bring the light,
From the Underdark’s gloom to the open skies,
They fight for justice, where hope never dies.

(Outro)
In the heart of Faerûn, where stories are told,
These heroes stand, fearless and bold,
Their tales are written in them stars above,
In the lands they protect, and the people they love.

Oh, Heroes Rise

Shieldmeet Fair

(Verse 1)
Through the mist and shadow’s veil,
Rides the train on a phantom rail.
No mortal tracks, no whistle’s cheer,
Only the souls it draws near.

(Chorus)
Oh, Ghost Train, roll through the night,
Guided by the pale moonlight.
Carrying whispers, carrying cries,
To the land where daylight dies.

(Verse 2)
The Vagrant smiles, his fiddle plays,
A mournful tune of yesterdays.
Tickets punched with life’s last breath,
Bound for the realms beyond death.

(Chorus)
Oh, Ghost Train, roll through the night,
Guided by the pale moonlight.
Carrying whispers, carrying cries,
To the land where daylight dies.

(Bridge)
Silver steam and haunted glow,
Through the Shroud its secrets flow.
Ride aboard, but beware the cost,
For none return from what is lost.

(Final Chorus)
Oh, Ghost Train, roll through the night,
Guided by the pale moonlight.
Carrying whispers, carrying cries,
To the land where daylight dies.

Ballad of The Ghost Train

[Intro] (Instrumental: haunting organ and distant chimes)

[Verse 1] [Am]In ancestral halls where shadows loom, [Bb]The last of the line awaits his doom. [G]Born to a fate by blood decreed, [Am]A curse that makes the heart concede.

[Chorus] [Am]Oh, the alchemist's revenge, [Bb]Through centuries, his will extends. [G]Bound by time, the ages blend, [Am]Until the lineage meets its end.

[Verse 2] [Am]Secrets hidden in ancient tomes, [Bb]Whispers echo through the crumbling stones. [G]A life cut short by vengeful art, [Am]The sins of the past still pierce the heart.

[Chorus] [Am]Oh, the alchemist's revenge, [Bb]Through centuries, his will extends. [G]Bound by time, the ages blend, [Am]Until the lineage meets its end.

[Bridge] (Instrumental: melancholic violin solo)

[Verse 3] [Am]In the tower's depths, a final breath, [Bb]Confronting the architect of death. [G]The cycle closes, the curse fulfilled, [Am]The ancient vow at last distilled.

[Chorus] [Am]Oh, the alchemist's revenge, [Bb]Through centuries, his will extends. [G]Bound by time, the ages blend, [Am]Until the lineage meets its end.

[Outro] (Instrumental: fading echoes of the organ)

Curse of the Alchemist

(Verse 1)
Out of Egypt, he came to rise [Am]
A Pharaoh’s gaze, with endless skies [Bb]
The fellahin knelt, but knew not why [Am]
Twenty-seven centuries he defied [F]
With instruments of glass and flame [G]
He taught the world, then left it maimed [Am]

(Chorus)
Nyarlathotep, the crawling chaos calls [Am]
In the nightmare’s grip, the shadow falls [Bb]
Messenger of gods, from the void between [Am]
In his eyes, the madness gleams unseen [G]

(Verse 2)
He whispered of sciences, strange and new [Am]
Electric dreams that pierce right through [Bb]
The minds of men, who stand aghast [Am]
Bound to witness, yet never last [F]
The small hours screamed as rest withdrew [G]
Wherever his shadow grew [Am]

(Chorus)
Nyarlathotep, the crawling chaos calls [Am]
In the nightmare’s grip, the shadow falls [Bb]
Messenger of gods, from the void between [Am]
In his eyes, the madness gleams unseen [G]

(Bridge)
From Shining Trapezohedron’s glow [Am]
Comes knowledge vast, a dreadful show [Bb]
Sacrifices monstrous, blood turned black [F]
Through gulfs of time, there’s no turning back [G]

(Chorus)
Nyarlathotep, the crawling chaos calls [Am]
In the nightmare’s grip, the shadow falls [Bb]
Messenger of gods, from the void between [Am]
In his eyes, the madness gleams unseen [G]

(Outro)
What fate awaits, none dare to see [Am]
A Haunter dark, infinity’s decree [Bb]
He walks the world, rest vanquished, lost [Am]
At the price of truth, we pay the cost [F]
Nyarlathotep, eternal dread [G]
The crawling chaos, where mortals tread [Am]

Nyarlathotep

Verse 1:
In the void where shadows breathe,
A maw that hungers, yet none can see.
Through the cracks of time, it calls,
A voice that whispers, devours, enthralls.

Chorus:
Xal'Zyrath, the endless maw,
Devourer of planes, breaker of law.
Through the rift, its tendrils creep,
In its hunger, all shall weep.

Verse 2:
A feast of worlds, its only desire,
A flame of chaos, consuming fire.

Chorus:
Xal'Zyrath, the endless maw,
Devourer of planes, breaker of law.
Through the rift, its tendrils creep,
In its hunger, all shall weep.

Bridge:
The stars cry out, their light consumed,
Reality bends to its darkened tune.
Hope grows faint, as shadows writhe,
The Hunger Between prepares to strike.

Chorus (Reprise):
Xal'Zyrath, the endless maw,
Devourer of planes, breaker of law.
Through the rift, its tendrils creep,
In its hunger, all shall weep.

Outro:
So beware the void, where silence reigns,
Where light and dark are both profaned.
For when it stirs, the worlds shall end,
And to Xal'Zyrath, all shall descend.

Xal'Zyrath, the Hunger Between Worlds

[Verse 1]

[Am] Oh, [G] my Lion, my [F] dearest, my [C] light in the [G] night,

The [F] roads grow so [C] shadowed, yet your [G] soul shines so [Am] bright.

Your [G] pointed ear [F] hears whispers that [C] mortals can’t [G] glean,

[F] Know my love [C] travels with you [G] wherever you [Am] go.

Through the [F] shadows, the [C] sorrow, the [G] struggle, the [Am] strife,

Our [F] love will out-[C]-last even [G] time’s endless [Am] life.

Until We Meet Again

(Verse 1:)
[Em] Upon the golden [E4] desert wide, where shifting sands do [F4] dance,
A kingdom forged in [G#4] fire’s light, in fate’s enduring [A4] hands.
Be-[Em]neath the Redspire’s [G#4] crimson glow, our banners rise and [F4] wave,
A land of wisdom, [E4] strong and proud, both daring and most [E4] brave.

(Chorus:)
Oh [Em] Jiltshiek, land of [B4] burning gold,
Where ancient winds our [C5] stories told.

(Short instrumental pause: [A4] [G#4] [E4]...)

The [Em] wells run deep, the [E4] waters gleam, a gift of fate un-[F4]told,
The Sandshard Bazaar [G#4] hums with life, in spice and silk and [A4] gold.
The [Em] Djinn still whisper in the [B4] night, where fire and magic [C5] weave,
Yet we endure, through [D#5] strength and will, in all that we [C5] believe!
