Poorly, the ringleader speaks,
His dagger is at the girl's neck.
"Where is your company?
Your brothers in arms ran
In fear from the Aeberholt's Scourge?"
Sir Elrich draws his sword,
Tosses the scabbard aside.
He measures his foes up,
And replies with a smirk:
 
"My company is finishing off
The rest of your godless band.
Put down your weapon,
Or the Host be my witness,
I'll end you." The leader laughs
In his arrogance: "For your impudence
 
The first one to pay is the innocent.”
 
One slice, and the blood gushes out
From the cut in the neck. The knight is blinded
With fury, thirsting for payback. A bow
Is barely drawn when sir Elrich
Sends the archer's head flying
WIth one swing. He charges at another.
One by one in the chaos of battle
The villains are bested.
 
Terror and fear. The Death is
Approaching. The ringleader,
Dastardly Treban, the Aeberholt's Scourge,
In vain he raises his shield.
With a short, feinted swing
Sir Elrich's blade cuts at his arm,
Then chops off his head.
 
At last the soldiers
Arrive only to witness their lord
Surrounded by corpses. And no
Living soul has remained.
Everything's still but the dying campfire.

(The first figure is clad in white and blue, its chin and lips are colored in red, the hands are wrapped in red ribbon)

Priest (solemnly):

- Tell me, o wretch, why were you murdered?

Dead man (monotonically):

- Because of my slander and greed. My tongue was ripped out and my fingers were chopped off.

(The second figure is clad in gray, its eyes and neck are tied with red ribbon)

Priest (solemnly):

- Tell me, o wretch, why were you murdered?

Dead man (monotonically):

- Because of me rebelling against the rightful order of things. My eyes were gouged out and my head was taken off my shoulders.

(The third figure is clad in red and gold, its chest is marred with red)

Priest (solemnly):

- Tell me, o wretch, why were you murdered?

Dead man (monotonically):

- Because of my loyalty and courage. My heart was ripped from my chest.

(The priest waves his hand. All three figures drop to the floor)

Priest (addresses the guards behind him):

- It's clear as day. The murderer is the one in red.

Guard (in confusion):

- If this is true... Then who killed the man himself?

Priest (mockingly):

- I'm afraid it will forever remain a secret!
