Besieged by the Orc Horde

from Tales from the Olden Realm by Malphas

lyrics

On the Western edge of the human realm
Lies a fortress
That stood strong for a thousand years

Great horde of the orcs
Marches to make siege
Thousands of warriors, coming to kill
Marching to conquer, the realm of man

Siege machines of fear
And war trolls
March on
Target is the fortress
Its walls will fall
Darkness is unleaded
Upon mankind

Fear grips the fortress
Riders return with news of war
Scouts have spotted the greenskins
Prepare for the siege

Soldiers prepare your weapons
Archers to the walls
Reinforce the battlements
Start to ration supplies

Orcs now surround the fortress wall
Fire the catapults, archers take aim

Ram to the gate, there is no escape
Walls start to crumble, men meet their fate

Greenskins start to pour in through the sundered wall
War trolls follow with great weapons of fear and hate
Warriors of mankind will fall before the green tide
Retreat to the keep to hold out for a last stand

So few remain
Only the strongest and bravest fight on
Driven back to hold the keep
War trolls assaulting the door

Desperate last stand
Fight to the last man
Crushed before the horde
Mankind stood no chance

Slaughtered to the last
Greenskins have taken the fortress
Warlord now sits on the throne
Now a place of evil
