Lyrics: [Verse 1] Down in the smoke-torn vale Where the ash drifts Never falling Men feared the shifting pale That walked when dusk was calling Villages barred their doors Choking on ghost-grey air Whispers of drifting claws Of a mind made of nightmare [Chorus] But the hunter of the smoke-torn vale Walked where others would not breathe Through spirals twisting Cold and frail Through faces flickering in the wreaths Steel in his steady gaze Footsteps sure on broken stone He chased the Enenra through the haze And claimed that cursed fog as his own (oh-oh) [Verse 2] It rose from the shattered kilns A tower of coiling sorrow Blades of soot Jagged and thin Promising no tomorrow Eyes like two empty moons Glowing in drifting shrouds Every step bent the dunes Every breath birthed more clouds [Chorus] Still the hunter of the smoke-torn vale Cut a path through writhing shade Each heartbeat marked a fiery trail Through shapes that flinched and bent and frayed Names of the lost in mind He pressed on where air had died The Enenra shrieked Its form untwined As his bright steel split its tide (hey!) [Bridge] It tried to fill his lungs With horrors half-remembered Faces of those once young Falling Crying Sundered Yet his will held like oak Roots sunk in mountain bone He walked through columns of choking smoke As if through fields of stone [Verse 3] At last on the charcoal ridge The wind tore veil from vessel Ash froze along the crumbled bridge As shadow and steel did wrestle One final Silent cut Through the heart of swirling night Cinders collapsed like hunted dust The sky drank back its light [Chorus] Now the hunter of the smoke-torn vale Returns with trophies few have seen A twisted mask of hardened veil Black glass where mist had been Hung by his weathered door It darkly catches dawn Proof that the Enenra walks no more And that his watch goes on and on (oh-oh) [Outro] So when the low mists creep And the hearth-fire flares too high They speak of a man who will not sleep Till every roaming shadow runs dry
