And the blaze of lightning in its eyes

The ravens of swift wings my sight
Surely now victory must be mine

Eight legged stallion of mine
Run with the speed of the winds

I paint thee with the blood from my veins
Images of origin long lost
I adorn your white mane and tail
With the stars that fell from the sky

A glade in the eternal deep dark woods..

[Magic for the price of his young heart. eager to win the upcoming duel, he]
[Entrusts his heart into her wooden hands for the ability to survive every]
[Cut or slit by his adversary.]
[And thus he had met the woodwoman..."]
