///*****/// [Riff Invocation] In a widening abyss between both armies, exposing the chained Heartwell below. human and elven generals face one another across green lightning while Malrec and Vaelor shout competing accusations. The old war enters on a drumbeat, but another rhythm waits beneath it. [Verse of Iron] Lyra presents the map; Eldrin activates the witnesses' memory; commanders see their own secret orders arranged into the extraction design. Steel gives every frightened answer the same hard voice, yet the ground receives the blood without asking which language named it. We carry the weight of orders and the quieter weight of doubt. Somewhere beyond the visible battle, a patient hand adjusts the board. [Lift] Veterans must choose whether loyalty means protecting leaders or protecting the people leaders betrayed. If conscience is a wound, let it remain open until truth enters. [Great Chorus] Generals, look into the deep See what all your victories keep Every order, every grave Fed the power traitors crave Generals, look into the deep See what all your victories keep Every order, every grave Fed the power traitors crave [Verse of Root] Malrec kills an officer who lowers his weapon, and Vaelor attempts to seize the seal, exposing their alliance in public. What seemed like chance reveals a door; what seemed like duty reveals a chain. Every remembered face becomes a witness standing wordlessly behind the choice. The future is not promised, only placed within reach of hands prepared to change. [Breakdown] The map bore human cipher marks The seal spoke in an elven voice Two kinds of proof became one mirror And command at last became a choice Let the drums fall back and leave one naked heartbeat in the hall. Let the smallest act of mercy challenge every monumental lie. [Twin-Lead Guitar Solo] Begin with the melodic color of human and elven generals face one another across green lightning while malrec and vaelor shout competing accusations; climb through the tension of veterans must choose whether loyalty means protecting leaders or protecting the people leaders betrayed; let two guitar voices disagree, listen, and finally discover a shared phrase. [Great Chorus — United] Generals, look into the deep See what all your victories keep Every order, every grave Fed the power traitors crave We will not feed tomorrow with the ashes of today. Generals, look into the deep See what all your victories keep Every order, every grave Fed the power traitors crave [Aftermath] One human shield drops to the mud One elven bow follows it down Then Malrec turns the engine wheel And Vaelor crowns himself in flame [Echo] human and elven generals face one another across green lightning while Malrec and Vaelor shout competing accusations. [Inner Voice] Veterans must choose whether loyalty means protecting leaders or protecting the people leaders betrayed.
