( . . . )

And with the name of a fair lady on his lips
Sir Darroth dons his helmet, draws a sword,
And challenges Ilaouk to combat.
His eyes burn with steely passion,
And fear has no command over the paladin.

The chieftain speaks:
"You come to your death.
There will be no mercy for your people:
No one will escape the massacre.
And every fallen warrior will be avenged a hundredfold.
Once again the Old Forest will rise
In place of your cities. Once again
The ancient sacred oaks will bud leaves
As it was many, many years ago".

With nothing else to say, he gives a signal.
His sons grab their weapons and charge the hero,
Striking him with vicious might,
That can bring down anyone
To their knees. Anyone but Darroth.

He regains his balance,
Raises the blade and
With a single arcing strike
He lops off five orcish heads...
