Through ruined halls and frozen flame, The dying whisper out her name. Wrapped in night, condemned to fly, The last Valkyrie crosses the sky. Through crimson fog she rides alone, Above a field of shattered bones. Her silver armor, scarred and cold, Still bears the grief of wars untold. Black ravens gather in her wake, While sleeping mountains groan and shake. She hears each fading mortal breath And walks the hollow road of death. A crown of thorns adorns her brow, No sacred prayer can save her now. For every spirit she must claim Adds one more shadow to her name. Funeral bells beneath the snow Call her where the lost must go. Neither living, neither dead— She follows where the ravens lead. **Valkyrie! Black angel of the storming sky!** Spread your wings where heroes die. Take the fallen from the flame, Let the darkness speak their names! **Valkyrie! Daughter of eternal night!** Crowned in sorrow, armed with light. Through the frost your mourning sounds— A requiem above the battleground! Rise! Rise! from the grave! Rise! Rise! fearless brave! When the final torches die, Follow her across the sky! She enters through the ruined gate, A deathless bride condemned by fate. Her veil is torn, her halo drowned, Her footsteps freeze the cursed ground. Inside the black cathedral walls, She hears the dead behind them call. A thousand faces carved in stone Watch her ascend the ashen throne. She once believed the gods were just, Before their temples turned to dust. Now every oath and sacred lie Burns like a wound she cannot hide. No god shall bind her! No throne shall own her! No fate shall close around her! She is the tempest! She is the mourning! She is the dark before the morning! I hear your heartbeat disappear, Yet your final voice is clear. Give your dying breath to me— I shall bear you through eternity. Through silver mist her dark horse flies, Beneath a sea of starless skies. She gathers souls from frozen ground, Where broken swords and shields are found. Each spirit burns within her wings, A choir made of fallen kings. No crown survives the hand of time, No throne escapes the final night. She sees the halls beyond the veil, Where golden fires have turned pale. The ancient gates are sealed with bone— She faces all the dark alone. She lays the fallen at the door, As she has done for years of war. But she may never cross inside— The gate rejects the deathless bride. Beyond the veil… beyond the sea… Who carries death shall not be free. Beyond the storm… beyond the flame… She saves the souls who curse her name. She gives them dawn, she keeps the night, And bears their grief in endless flight. Let mountains tremble! armies rise! Let every bell of death arise! I served the thrones now turned to dust— No god shall leave me here to rust! Who walks where funeral fires burn? — The Valkyrie! Who waits for those who won’t return? — The Valkyrie! Who breaks the chains of death’s command? — She rides by fate’s forsaken hand! Through frost! Through fire! Through sorrow! Black wings! Cold flame! No tomorrow! **Valkyrie! Dark queen of the northern night!** Raise the dead and end their fight. Break the gates and claim the flame— Let eternity remember your name! No longer chained to destiny. Let every frozen mountain ring— The dead awaken, the lost now sing! When the final moon sinks beneath the sea, No chains of fate will capture me. Where funeral bells and ravens cry, My blackened wings shall fill the sky. I carried souls beyond their graves… But who will carry me into the light?
