The soldiers bear the royal crest and scream into the sky "He will come He will come! the Dragon's on the rise!" "The King survived though his throat was cut, they say he's the chosen one He leads our men from Babylon, the rebellion's worldly son Against the Tyrant, we have joined with him as soldiers" He tells me this while he shakes a bit - he's staring at his gun The painful stings of flying things have worn away his flesh and popped his eyes At the blackness, he lashes out and cries: "You cowards and your wrathful God will see what power means when the Dragon comes, His will be done, in the ...
