lyrics
A special case is made to hold the metal mold, set and placed under water for the cooling to unfold the legend untold.
Once the Phoenix flies above the water and through the Temple's arches with wings hotter than lava,
flames melt through the columns,
falling upon the Slanglava
that pours into the case hollow.
Special hammers start shape on the metal to form the sharp blade. During the cool down, much of the water evaporates, until the case cracks and breaks open to reveal a handsome blade.
Once retrieved, the handle awaits. The Sword is heavy, but easy to unsheathe from the belly held by hands holding steady both edges ready for deadly.
Once the Phoenix flies above the water and through the Temple's arches with wings hotter than lava,

Once retrieved, the handle awaits. The Sword is heavy, but easy to unsheathe from the belly held by hands holding steady both edges ready for deadly.
