Song Text.
The halls were silent,
The fires burned low,
The names of heroes
Were carried by snow.
No sword remained,
No king still stood,
Only the echoes
Of Volsung blood.
The dragon had fallen,
The valkyrie cried,
The greatest of legends
Had broken and died.
Yet under the ashes,
Where sorrow had lain,
A single small ember
Was breathing again.
The old world ended,
The songs grew still,
Yet fate kept weaving
Beyond the hill.
The Norns looked down
Where the cold winds sighed,
And guarded the child
That the world would hide.
Daughter of the Dragonslayer,
Born beneath the northern sky,
Child of fire and ancient promise,
Where no bloodline truly dies.
Daughter of the Dragonslayer,
Sleeping while the ravens call,
Last light of the fallen Volsungs,
Hope beyond the final fall.
She never knew
Her father's hand,
Nor saw the dragon
Upon the land.
She never heard
The shieldmaid's cry,
Nor watched great kingdoms
Live and die.
Yet in her veins
The old flame burned,
Though all the world
Had never learned.
A child of sorrow,
A child of flame,
Waiting for time
To speak her name.
The Norns stood silent,
The ravens knew,
A single thread
Still pulled them through.
From broken oaths
And bloodstained ground,
A future rose
Without a sound.
Aslaug...
Keeper of the ancient flame,
Bearer of the Volsung legacy,
More than just a father's name.
Aslaug...
Child of grief and morning light,
Born from fire, blood, and sorrow,
Walking from the endless night.
The gold would fade,
The halls would fall,
The greatest heroes
Answered the call.
But blood remembers
Long after stone,
What swords cannot,
A child has known.
Sigurd was gone,
Brynhild was gone,
Yet still their fire
Was carried on.
Not in a kingdom,
Not in a throne,
But in a daughter
Walking alone.
Aslaug...
Daughter of the Dragonslayer,
Mother of the Raven's blood,
The last flame of the Volsungs,
The first wings of the Raven.
Aslaug...
Hope beyond the broken line,
The child the Norns had hidden,
Until the turning of time.
The dragon slept,
The fires were gone,
Yet one small flame
Still carried on.
The Norns smiled,
The ravens flew,
A new age waited
Beyond the blue.
And Aslaug
Walked into dawn,
Unaware
That kings would one day
Speak her name.
The Volsungs were gone...
Their blood was not.
