I. Into Darkness
3
As grey traces of dawn tinge the eastern sky, the three
4
travelers, men of Willow Dale, emerge from the forest
5
shadow. Fording the River Dawn, they turn south,
6
journeying into the dark and forbidding lands of the
7
Necromancer. Even now the intensity of his dread power
8
can be felt, weakening the body and saddening the heart.
9
Ultimately they will become empty, mindless spectres,
10
stripped of will and soul. Only their thirst for freedom
11
gives them hunger for vengeance...
12
Silence shrouds the forest
13
As the birds announce the dawn
14
Three trav'llers ford the river
15
And southward journey on
16
The road is lined with peril
17
The air is charged with fear
18
The shadow of his nearness
19
Weighs like iron tears
20
II. Under the Shadow
21
Shreds of black cloud loom in overcast skies. The
22
Necromancer keeps watch with his magic prism eyes. He
23
views all his lands and is already aware of the three
24
helpless invaders trapped in his lair...
25
Brooding in the tower
26
Watching o'er his land
27
Holding ev'ry creature
28
Helplessly they stand
29
Gaze into his prisms
30
Knowing they are near
31
Lead them to the dungeons
32
Spectres numb with fear
33
They bow defeated
34
III. Return of the Prince
35
Enter the Champion.
36
Prince By-Tor appears to battle for freedom from chains
37
of long years. The spell has been broken...the Dark Lands
38
are bright, the Wraith of the Necromancer soars away...in
39
the night.
40
Stealthily attacking
41
By-Tor slays his foe
42
The men are free to run now
43
From labyrinths below
44
The Wraith of Necromancer
45
Shadows through the sky
46
Another land to darken
47
With evil prism eye...
