Five Upon the Road - Fantasy Travel song

*Five Upon the Road* Five Upon the Road is an original fantasy tavern song celebrating the Envoy of Ithralen and the strange fellowship that has become its heart. Led by Sir Wulfrid, the group somehow survives equal parts monsters, ghosts, philosophical debates, questionable medical practices, and whatever trouble Brahen accidentally starts. No matter how dangerous the road becomes, they always seem to find another reason to laugh, another tavern to visit, and another story worth singing about. Lyrics *Five Upon the Road* Original fantasy tavern song So shoulder packs and lace your boots, The morning's bright and fair! Wulfrid points us down the road... The rest go everywhere. A goblin, raconteur, dragon whelp, A hoplite brave and true. One somehow keeps this merry band... From starting one more feud. *Hey!* Ho! The road rolls on! So raise your cups up high! We've laughed at death too many times To fear it drawing nigh. Through thunder, ghosts, and buttered bread, We'll greet each rising sun. Five fools upon a winding road... And every mile is fun. Vaelen frowned, "The world's a grave..." We groaned, "Oh, here we go..." He spoke for nearly half an hour In tones both dark and low. Then raised his mug. "Enough of that! Let's laugh until first light! If doom insists on finding us... It can wait till tomorrow night!" Tuesday asked a highwayman, "How many bones have you?" He blinked and said, "The normal lot..." She cried, "Is that quite true?" Wulfrid sighed, "She's being kind..." The bandit wasn't sold. He turned and ran before he learned Why Tuesday wished to know. *Hey!* Ho! The road rolls on! So raise your cups up high! We've laughed at death too many times To fear it drawing nigh. Through thunder, ghosts, and buttered bread, We'll greet each rising sun. Five fools upon a winding road... And every mile is fun. Brahen puffed his little chest, "I'll guard the camp tonight!" He struck a pose both bold and fierce... Then sneezed a bolt of light. The bandits fled, the camp awoke, The horses took to flight. He whispered, "See? I told you all... I kept us safe tonight." Epicrates asked, "Garum, please." They served him butter spread. He thanked them with a gracious nod And tried it on his bread. He paused and smiled. "Remarkable... A clever local art." He still prefers his garum, though— "But this is quite a start." Wulfrid shakes his weary head. "I ask for one calm day." Tuesday smiles, "That's optimistic." They all just march away. *Hey!* Ho! The road rolls on! So raise your cups up high! We've laughed at death too many times To fear it drawing nigh. Through thunder, ghosts, and buttered bread, We'll greet each rising sun. Five fools upon a winding road... And every mile is fun. 🎵 Created by IronWatch Minstrels If you enjoy fantasy tavern songs, original adventuring parties, humorous fantasy music, and original worldbuilding, subscribe for future releases.
