Calling my kin

Twilight gathers silver, Shadows guard the hollow. Rise, forgotten voices, Awaken earth and stone. No fire warms the meadow, No star crowns the mountain. Hear me, hear me, The cry that binds us in darkness. Step forth, children of dawn, Step forth to shield the living. Swift as the falcon’s wing, Be summoned to this place! Dusk lays down her mantle, Whispers stir the branches. Wake, O silent kindred, Return with flame in hand. No horn resounds in valley, No watchfire crowns the ridges. Answer, answer, The summons carved in nightfall. Come forth, keepers of memory, Come forth with hearts unbroken. Strong as the rising tide, Be gathered in this hour! Stormlight bends the heavens, Echoes cross the meadows. Rise, O steadfast guardians, Stand where the shadows lean. No song adorns the river, No light defends the highlands. Hearken, hearken, The call that binds our spirits. March on, voices united, March on with banners flying. Bright as the morning star, Be present in this place! Night unveils the starlight, Oaks bear ancient sorrow. Lift, forgotten courage, Awaken fire within. No blade shall rest in slumber, No vow shall fade to silence. Listen, listen, The cry that shapes our fate now. Arise, children eternal, Arise with will unyielding. Swift as the eagle’s flight, Be summoned here as kin!
