The White Hills have drunken my blood,Red, red, the flowers.Oh, when will I breathe free again?Red, the flowers, red.My face is pale, my hands are cold.Red, red, the flowers.My day is done, my night has come.Red, the flowers, red.

Came the Highborn to TentirRandon training beckoned,Came the Highborn to TentirThree lordans to the Keep.
11
Long long away,No Knorth Heir neither HighlordAbandoned by the Arrin-kenAnd our God silent so long
Long long awayIn the White Hills where is our honor?Now three lordans enter TentirAnd we fear that all shall change.

Lully lully lullaby.Dream of meadows, free of flies,Dream of friends who never lie,And of love that never dies.But all life must end in sighs,So lully lully lullaby.
Lully lully lullaby.Remember that all men do lie,If not in words, then deeds belieAnd they will hunt you till you dieAnd then your mouth will fill with flies,So lully lully lullaby.

The dead know only what concerns the deadAnd what concerns the dead is more than deathUnsettled crimes and unrequited passionsAll matters left unfinished in their fashionsAre whispered among those who lack for breath.

Down in a dark hall desperate footstepsSeek out the safety of shadows and silence.Beautiful Aerulan, Brenwyr's belovedClutches a child's hand, white-cheeked with fear.Above, at the doorway already coldKinzi lies killed among cascades of crimson.
Sweet pale blooms promise protectionConcealment and comfort for cold Tieri.A woven hanging hides her behind it,Moon-garden entrance guarded by grace.Aerulan invites assassins to her arms:Her death distracts them from Tieri's trail.
Cut down like corn the women of Knorth.Ashes blew black from blazing pyres.Knorth's men, maddened made for the hillsDrinking full deep of destruction's draught.Under her home's halls Tieri lay hiddenLast Knorth woman left all alone.
