Quotes edit
-
“Thus Sigmar wept not for Middenheim, nor he wept for his burned lands. But he wept on seeing his brother lie dead while all his people wept for themselves. From that day upon Fauschlag Rock we did not speak boldy; and we passed not either night of day that we did not breathe heavy sighs. Thus it was Death that carried off Pendrag, whose strength and vigours had been mighty, as it will every warrior who shall come after him upon the Earth.”

“Some, though headless, stood erect, from some the arms were hacked, some were pierced from front to back, and on some on horse in armor sat, some choked while at their food, some were drowned in flood, and some were withered up in fire, some raving mad and others dead. Merciful Shallya of the Sorrow pours bright tears from her eyes weeping and wailing the fate of men. Alas, my grief that ye did not heed her cries.”

“Hollow footsteps, cloaked by night, of sadness known through tortured sight; the willow weeps its tears of woe as Owl moans the twin moons' glow. Wind whispers through the willow's leaves, and Owl, perched high, eternal grieves. Raven drinks the blood of Sigmar's dead. But soon flies off to a hideen bed. Weary 'neath death's black spell, the dead know pain that none can quell. Cursed to fight those they loved, forever lost, each journey taken, plagues the mind; the nights awaken. Troubled visions, thoughts of yesterdays, that seem like beacones; lives away. Random comforts cannot ease their soul, for knowledge takes its weary toll 'pon one who suffers with each breath, who slept once in peace, then awoke in death.”
