March of the Deepwrights

The album is Emeric's journal, the history of our world from before the campaign began. It opens with the Deepwrights arriving from over the sea after magic failed, with steel ships, guns, and a promise to clean the land of monsters. Promises like that always come with a price.

And lo the Elder Bane comet fell
Poisoning the waters of the Umbral Lake
The Weave severed
The Great Dying was upon Teladrimm
And then
A light of hope appeared on the horizon

From over the sea we come
Deep-fueled ships of steel and guns
Conquer this land magic drained
Listen close you'll hear our name

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! RAH!
Teladrimm set free!

Freaks and monsters fear our stamp
Wipe them all clean off the map
We don't need the stardust dreams
Truth in metal's what we be

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

We roll out on the High Rails
Mighty engines ships no sails
By the Highgate family built
And by Gearlocke passion filled

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

Though we've much to be Proud of
We are not craving your love
Until Deepwright Nation clean
Send the Dreadnoughts burn obscene

How could they be powered?
Escape from the Grind
Ascendancy before you
Let your peace of mind
Be that

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

We'll burn out all the terrors
Plaguing the land once fairer
The Maelstrom will be just fine
Under Highgate Castle's eye

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

We'll never bow to demons
We'll always be the free men
We don't fear our destiny
That is why we all can sing

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Steel in will and mind!
Everyone must join us! YAH!
Or only death they'll find!

Though we've much to be Proud of
We are not craving your love
Until Deepwright Nation clean
Send the Dreadnoughts burn obscene

How could they be powered?
Escape from the Grind
Ascendancy before you
Let your peace of mind
Be that

A light of hope appeared on the horizon

We are the Deepwrights! HA!
Ingenuity!
Gnome and human allies! YAH!
Teladrimm set free!

We are the Deepwrights!
Steel in will and mind!
Everyone must join us! YAH!
Or only death they'll find!
