Seventh Spade

[Intro] From a village small, under Yoln's great shadow, Walked a healer's path, straight and narrow. Born of tongues twined in Elvish and Gnomish lore, Trained by kin in ways of peace and war. [Verse] By seventeen, the drums of war called Halek's name, Snatched from home, into the army's claim. Swift of foot and sharp of mind, he earned his mark, Midst the battle's roar, a life-saving spark. [Chorus] Halek Lifegiver, in the fray he danced, Saving souls where death's shadow pranced. Honor bound to heal, not to slay, Yet fate's cruel twist changed his way. [Verse] Under Idris’s flag, prestige and pride grew wide, Two years at his side, through every tide. But trust shattered like glass under the moon's cold glare, When a ghostly foe left despair in the air. [Bridge] He stood his ground when all others fled. A lone guardian among the dread. Scars earned in valiant strife. He cut down the phantom of life. [Instrumental] [Verse] Promised accolades turned to bitter betrayal. He was labeled a deserter, his honor derailed. From Lifegiver to fugitive and with no refuge in sight, he was cast into shadows, robbed of his right. [Verse] In the ranks of the king's MASK he masters his trade. With a card in hand and a new name to claim. [Outro] Halek Lifegiver he was no more. That name won't be restored. He'll just have to be... the Seventh Spade. [end]
