It's meant to be. ******The Heroes of SpittlemarchDark clouds gathered in SpittlemarchBrought by the kin of the dragonGreat lizards and small, evil allAnd it seemed that all hope was gone.What would become of poor SpittlemarchWhat would become of poor SpittlemarchBut four heroes came to the keepAnswering the Baron’s call for aidFour from afar, most seemed quite shortBut of no sterner stuff could they have been madeAnd they were the heroes of SpittlemarchAnd they were the heroes of Spittlemarch. Kin to the stag and the twig The Elf, master of blade and bowStruck fear and death into dragonkinAnd arrows that laid dragons lowCall him Dragonbane of SpittlemarchCall him Dragonbane of SpittlemarchBrother to the roots of the mountainsThe Dwarf swung his axe with great furyCut a path through the dark onesWith blows that no weapon can parryCall him the Reaper of SpittlemarchCall him the Reaper of SpittlemarchShadow and light, beauty and dangerThe halfling lass and her scienceSkulked in the shadows and Roared outWith fear drove dark minions to penanceCall her the Thunder of SpittlemarchCall her the Thunder of SpittlemarchThunder’s brother, and kin to weaverA halfling lad that bound evil in webHe filled the mines with his weavingAnd turned the tide of evil to ebb.Call him the Spider of SpittlemarchCall him the Spider of Spittlemarch.They went to Dragon MountainTo face the ancient evil called SearHer servants and priest. Led by her son,Eldgrim, a villain who ruled with evil and fear.They were the doom of fair SpittlemarchThey were the doom of fair Spittlemarch.The four who knew no fear did comeAnd brought new hope to the peopleDragonbane brought his great longbowAnd Reaper swung his great axeSpider trapped the minions of evilAnd Thunder brought down the mountain.They are the heroes of SpittlemarchThank the gods for the heroes of Spittlemarch.</blockquote>
