AmAlong a road in GHardorn, the Fplace called Stony AmTor
A Cfearful band of Gfarmers flees Dmkarsite Amborder Gwar
A Amfrighted band of Gfarmers, their Dmchildren and their Gwives
Seek Frefuge Amfrom a Gtyrant who wants Fmore than Gjust their Amlives
Now Cup rides Herald DVanyel "Why Cthen such haste" says Ghe
Now Cwho is it persuGing,who's Fanger do you Cflee?
CYou are all of GHardorn why Cseek you GValdemar?
Is FFestil Cno Dprotection nor Fbide all his Gmen too Amfar?
Oh AmVanyel, Herald GVanyel, We Fflee now for our Amlives
Lord AmNedran would enslave Gus, our Dmchilderen and our Gwives
He'd Amgive our souls to Gdemons, our Dmbodies to his Gmen
King FFestil Amhas not Gheeded or he Fhappens Gnot to Amken
Now Cup speaks Herald DVanyel,"The Cborder is not Gfar"
But Cyou are all fo GHardorn, and Fnot of ValdeCmar
CYou are not Rendale's Gpeople can Ccall not on his Gthrone
But Fdamned if CI will Dsee you left so Fhelpless Gon your Amown
So Amforth goes Herald GVanyel, and Fonward does he Amride
On AmStony Tor he waits Gthen, DmYfandes at his Gside
With AmNedran's men Gapproaching, he Dmcalls out from on Ghigh
You Fshall not Ampass, Lord GNedran, nay I Fshall not Glet you Amby
Now Conly Herald DVanyel stands Cblocking Nedran's Gway
Now Cwho are you, fool Gnothing, that Fdares to tell me Cnay
Now Cup speaks Herald GVanyel, his Cvoice like brittle Gglass
The FHerald CMage called DVanyel and says FI you Gshall not Ampass
Now Amthere stands great Lord GNedran, Fbehind him forty Ammen
With Amwizard there beside Ghim, he Dmpales and speaks Gagain
So Amyou are Herald GVanyel this Dmplace is not your lGand
So Fheed me AmHerald GVanyel and now Fturn Gaside your Amhand
Let Ambe I'll give you Gsilver and FI shall give you Amgold
And AmI shall give you Gjewels fair that sparkle Dmbright and Gbold
And AmI shall give you Gpearls, all Dmtreasures of the Gsea
If Fyou will turn Amaside Ghere leaving Fthese poor Gfools to Amme
What Cneed have I of Dsilver with Csweet Yfandes Ghere
And Call the gold I Gcherish is Fsunlight bright and Cclear
The Conly jewel I Gtreasure's a Cbright and shining Gstar
FI protCect all Dhelpless not just Fthose of GValdemAmar
Now AmI shall give you Gbeauty, Fwomen slaves and Ammen
And AmI shall give you Gpower you'll Dmnever see agaiGn
And AmI shall give you Gmansions and DmI shall give you Gland
If Fyou will turn Amaside this Gday, Faside and Ghold you Amhand
Now Cbeauty held in Dbondage is Cbeauty that is Glost
And Cland and mansions blood Gbought come Ftoo high at the Ccost
The Cpower I have Galready, all Cpower is a Gjade
So Fturn ye Cback Lord DNedran if of Fme you Gare afraAmid
Lord AmNedran backs his Gstailion, his Fwizard he comes Amnigh
PreAmpare youself bold GVanyel, for Dmyou shall surely Gdie
The Amwizard calls his Gdemons, the Dmdemons he Gcommands
And FVanyel, AmHerald GVanyel only Fraises Gempty Amhands
The Amwizard calls his Gdemons, the Fsky above turns Amblack
The Amdemons strike at GVanyel, he Dmstands and holds them Gback
The Amdemons strike at GVanyel, they Dmstrike and hurt him Gsore
But FVanyel Amstands Gdefiantly to Fraise his Ghands once Ammore
The Amsky itself Gdesends now, upon Fbare Stony AmTor
Now Amhides the awful Gbattle, the Dmwatchers see no Gmore
The Amwizard shouts in Gtriuph, too Dmsoon he vents his Gmirth
For FVanyel Amcalls the Glightning down and Fsmites him Gto the Amearth
The Amclouds of black have Glifted and Fthere on barren Amground
Stands AmVanyel, hurt yet Gvictor, the Dmdemons tied and Gbound
He Amlooks down at Lord GNedran, his Dmeyes grow cold and Gbleak
Now FI shall Amgive you GNedran all the Fpower that Gyou Amseek
AmVanyel frees the Gdemons and FNedran screams with Amfear
He Amsets them on the GKarsites who Dmfirst had broght them Ghere
He Amsets them on the GKarsites and Dmon the Karsite Gland
They Flook down Amon Lord GNedran and they Fdo not Gstay there Amhand
CVanyel calls the Dfarmers, "Go Ctell you near and Gfar"
How Cthus are served the Gtyrants who Fwould take CValdemar
I Cam the bane of Gdemons, their Cquarry I Gdefend
Thus FHerals Cserve a Dfoeman and thus FHerald Gsave a Amfriend

Chords in this song · guitar

Am G F Am

Along a road in Hardorn, the place called Stony Tor

C G Dm Am G

A fearful band of farmers flees karsite border war

Am G Dm G

A frighted band of farmers, their children and their wives

F Am G F G Am

Seek refuge from a tyrant who wants more than just their lives

C D C G

Now up rides Herald Vanyel "Why then such haste" says he

C G F C

Now who is it persuing,who's anger do you flee?

C G C G

You are all of Hardorn why seek you Valdemar?

F C D F G Am

Is Festil no protection nor bide all his men too far?

Am G F Am

Oh Vanyel, Herald Vanyel, We flee now for our lives

Am G Dm G

Lord Nedran would enslave us, our childeren and our wives

Am G Dm G

He'd give our souls to demons, our bodies to his men

F Am G F G Am

King Festil has not heeded or he happens not to ken

C D C G

Now up speaks Herald Vanyel,"The border is not far"

C G F C

But you are all fo Hardorn, and not of Valdemar

C G C G

You are not Rendale's people can call not on his throne

F C D F G Am

But damned if I will see you left so helpless on your own

Am G F Am

So forth goes Herald Vanyel, and onward does he ride

Am G Dm G

On Stony Tor he waits then, Yfandes at his side

Am G Dm G

With Nedran's men approaching, he calls out from on high

F Am G F G Am

You shall not pass, Lord Nedran, nay I shall not let you by

C D C G

Now only Herald Vanyel stands blocking Nedran's way

C G F C

Now who are you, fool nothing, that dares to tell me nay

C G C G

Now up speaks Herald Vanyel, his voice like brittle glass

F C D F G Am

The Herald Mage called Vanyel and says I you shall not pass

Am G F Am

Now there stands great Lord Nedran, behind him forty men

Am G Dm G

With wizard there beside him, he pales and speaks again

Am G Dm G

So you are Herald Vanyel this place is not your land

F Am G F G Am

So heed me Herald Vanyel and now turn aside your hand

Am G F Am

Let be I'll give you silver and I shall give you gold

Am G Dm G

And I shall give you jewels fair that sparkle bright and bold

Am G Dm G

And I shall give you pearls, all treasures of the sea

F Am G F G Am

If you will turn aside here leaving these poor fools to me

C D C G

What need have I of silver with sweet Yfandes here

C G F C

And all the gold I cherish is sunlight bright and clear

C G C G

The only jewel I treasure's a bright and shining star

F C D F G Am

I protect all helpless not just those of Valdemar

Am G F Am

Now I shall give you beauty, women slaves and men

Am G Dm G

And I shall give you power you'll never see again

Am G Dm G

And I shall give you mansions and I shall give you land

F Am G F G Am

If you will turn aside this day, aside and hold you hand

C D C G

Now beauty held in bondage is beauty that is lost

C G F C

And land and mansions blood bought come too high at the cost

C G C G

The power I have already, all power is a jade

F C D F G Am

So turn ye back Lord Nedran if of me you are afraid

Am G F Am

Lord Nedran backs his stailion, his wizard he comes nigh

Am G Dm G

Prepare youself bold Vanyel, for you shall surely die

Am G Dm G

The wizard calls his demons, the demons he commands

F Am G F G Am

And Vanyel, Herald Vanyel only raises empty hands

Am G F Am

The wizard calls his demons, the sky above turns black

Am G Dm G

The demons strike at Vanyel, he stands and holds them back

Am G Dm G

The demons strike at Vanyel, they strike and hurt him sore

F Am G F G Am

But Vanyel stands defiantly to raise his hands once more

Am G F Am

The sky itself desends now, upon bare Stony Tor

Am G Dm G

Now hides the awful battle, the watchers see no more

Am G Dm G

The wizard shouts in triuph, too soon he vents his mirth

F Am G F G Am

For Vanyel calls the lightning down and smites him to the earth

Am G F Am

The clouds of black have lifted and there on barren ground

Am G Dm G

Stands Vanyel, hurt yet victor, the demons tied and bound

Am G Dm G

He looks down at Lord Nedran, his eyes grow cold and bleak

F Am G F G Am

Now I shall give you Nedran all the power that you seek

Am G F Am

Vanyel frees the demons and Nedran screams with fear

Am G Dm G

He sets them on the Karsites who first had broght them here

Am G Dm G

He sets them on the Karsites and on the Karsite land

F Am G F G Am

They look down on Lord Nedran and they do not stay there hand

C D C G

Vanyel calls the farmers, "Go tell you near and far"

C G F C

How thus are served the tyrants who would take Valdemar

C G C G

I am the bane of demons, their quarry I defend

F C D F G Am

Thus Herals serve a foeman and thus Herald save a friend
