Fall of the Dreadlord

This is the legend of our D&D world, fifty years before our campaign began. Emeric Proud struck the last blow against the Dreadlord, was double-crossed by his own allies, and ended up king anyway. When our game started, the old king had just died.

The Teladrimm Five legends all
Somehow they caused the Dreadlord's fall

The plan together five man strong
Six if the unborn comes along
Three power stones in hand we wait
The chance to change our awful fate

Deep behind the enemy lines
We watch and wait and bide our time
The Dreadlord's army sent to kill
Felwar's indomitable will

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
A crown must be my great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

Inches given they held the line
But now the Dreadlord seems inclined
To take a hand in what comes next
Up to the sky his arms outstretched

An awful roar shakes us awake
The Dreadlord thwarted lucky break
Sharakhal shouts this is our chance
Ready or not it's time to dance

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
Freedom must be our great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
Freedom must be our great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

The sky on fire rocks hit ground
Endless city brutally pound
A triangle formation make
Holding the stones power to take

Sharakhal uplifts the blue stone
But he's not able on his own
Alanna's love supports his mind
The Dreadlord's thoughts the stone will bind

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
Power must be my great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

With his mind gone there's only rage
Fel'Merida his soul to cage
She lifts the yellow stone up high
To catch the Dreadlord's awful eye

Eternal Dark she seemed to chant
Eternal Glory did enchant
The Dreadlord's spirit mastered now
Directionless his head now bowed

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
Control must be my great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

Rammza Gearlocke stood forth red next
The Dreadlord's power steals his breath
A single tear rolls down his cheek
The Dreadlord howls collapsing weak

His army wrecked his body kneels
Who can say what the Dreadlord feels
My blade slides in I tell him that
I bring regards from Akenraat

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a demon so get screwed
A crown must be my great reward
Risking all to fell the Dreadlord

I shout it's done now break the stones
But only Rammza acts alone
Raising hammer to smash the red
But freezes with the next thing said

Fel'Merida and Sharakhal
Intended this hour all along
Shar says we can be new Elders
Saw this coming I know better

Throw a smoke bomb
While they're too weak
To stop me taking
What I need
Rammza red stone
Open the gate
Must keep this from them
For our sake

Right for me is not right for you
But you're a traitor so get screwed
Even if I lose my reward
Just my life but felled the Dreadlord

Did the right thing but I'm confused
I thought my destined crown was screwed
The people demand my reward
Made me king I felled the Dreadlord
