about

This is the second song in the Illiath suite, and one of my favourites on the album. Parts of it were extra material from part 1, which gave me a head start and the song was completed about a weeks after the first part. Starting with the cheap 1980s Casio keyboard was a bit of an odd idea but was quirky enough to keep.

lyrics

Illiath Part II – The Fight

Illie went in search of the cave to find and slay her evil foe
Then she heard some thoughts from above
Of evil men watching below
Seven bandits dropped from the trees
To take her gold or else her life
Soon their leader saw his mistake
Her three-foot sword against his knife

They had no clue what they had done
Mugging the monster is not very fun
"You are a sinner," she said – then she removed his head.

Illie smiled a terrible smile as he fell dead as he could be
Then her face turned back to a snarl
Since only some had tried to flee
Two of them were skilled at the sword
A clash of steel as they went round
Illie was the top of her class and left them dead upon the ground

She took their heads back to the town
She claimed the bounty for putting them down
"This one’s the leader," she said – and then produced his head.

Illie found her way to the cave to find and slay her evil foe
Pausing every stop of the way, and into what she didn’t know
A bolt of lightning, a bang and a flash
She dropped unconscious with a metallic crash
What else is there left to tell?
They put her in a cell.
