Within the Castle Shadowgate:

(Knight/Burchell)

Fallen through the deepest void what will be for me

The castle of death the Shadowgate

Fooled by the Faeries of the Elven-Wood

Death lurks in the air candles all along the walls

There is no way out

Through this labyrinth I crawl

Legions of creatures fly at me from overhead

I fight back with all my might

There raging fury beats me down

Down to the ground I fall

There's no hope or prayer for me

Thousands of creatures and out goes the candlelight

In the dungeons I awake and all the creatures have vanished now

Light shines through the door way

As I approach the skeleton warrior attacks

Chorus:

Within the Shadowgate

Darkness lurks This can't be

Within the Shadowgate

I'm alone Set me free

Within the Shadowgate

Your fate is sealed can't you see

Within the Shadowgate

Shall you face your destiny

Skeleton man Arise

From the ground beneath.

Skeleton man Fall...

To the floor, Rebound.

Skeleton man Fight...

Endlessly in the dark.

Skeleton man Burn...

Rise to the sky in a rage of fire.

Dark are the wizards that called for me.

Dark is the fate they've chosen for me.

-The Great Shadowmage:

"Take my hand, brave knight of winter.

Join us and bring this darkness to an end."

-The Knight:

I recieve the Dagger of Ice...

Which brightens the dungeon this night.

With courage I shall fight...For my life!

(Chorus)

-All the Shadowmages together:

"Rejoice in the light of the Heavens above.

The brave one has come to save us.

Through mortal strength and magic combined...

We shall be WINTER TRIUMPHANT."

(Solo)

So we must journey on

Through these dark and endless chambers

To bring down the Shadowgate

To destroy the Phantasm and free the spirits within

(Chorus)
