The Halls of the Ironfold | Anthems for Dwarves | Fantasy Folklore

Описание: This song is a declaration of who the Dwarves are and where they belong.

“The Halls of the Ironfold” is a traditional dwarven call-and-response chant, sung for the mountain that shelters them and the craft that defines them. In the Ironfold, stone is home, fire is a tool, and gold has worth only when earned. Laws are sworn, work is measured, and every strike of the hammer carries memory.

The Dwarves love the Ironfold not for its beauty alone, but for its honesty. It does not bend easily, and neither do they.

Lyrics:

Where can you find a welcome warm? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where is stone the shield from storm? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where are the laws just, weighed, and sworn?
Where do ancient banners hang, unworn? (The Ironfold, the Ironfold)

Where do jewels gleam without the sun? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where is honest gold well-won? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where do veins run thick and long?
Where does pick and patience belong? (The Ironfold, the Ironfold)

Where do hammers speak in time? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where does strike meet measured rhyme? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where is every blow aligned?
Where does skill outlast the mind? (The Ironfold, the Ironfold)

Where does fire obey the hand? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where is heat both fierce and planned? (The Halls of the Ironfold)
Where are blades and vows refined?
Where does flame leave truth behind? (The Ironfold, the Ironfold)
