This ancient song was discovered on a mouldering scroll hidden deep in the Library of Castle Xanthros. Only the first two verses were legible, so the end of the story can only be guessed...

lyrics

I gather my retainers near.
I summon forth the SWORD OF XANTHROS.
My castle is impregnable.
The demon wizards have met their match.

Chorus:
Geomorphic immunity fills my soul.
Geomorphic immunity – I'm immortal!

Ten beakers filled with liquids rare.
Ten potions to restore vitality.
Ten summonings of spirits true.
Ten links in the magical chain.

Chorus.

And all these things I do,
to fight the demon wizards.
Protect my loyal serfs.

Summon forth the mangonels.
Summon forth the SWORD OF XANTHROS.
Summon forth my eight-legged steed.
Unleash the magical beasts!

Chorus.

And all these things I do, to fight the demon wizards. Protect my loyal serfs.
