DragonHeart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Narrator] - "A long time ago in an era almost forgotten by the gods, there were two kingdoms: Claymored, famous for it's sharp-edged tools and Fhalkior, specialized in shields and armors. They were feared and envied by their enemies because of their power.One day when the two kingdoms were celebrating an alliance of great proportions, without any motive, the sky turned black and brought an unbelievable fear never felt before by those people. A cold darkness took the place of the daylight and from the sky terrible winged creatures of incredible size and demoniac forces came down to earth. An endless massacre was spread out on the two kingdoms, and the armies had no chance, nor time to take care of the wounded and survivors. They protected themselves in a castle that was still standing up. The Claymored castle served as shelter for the people of the two kingdoms. Inside the ruined castle, the King of Claymored, Theodoric, swore revenge with a fury that would scare the Devil himself. But his army was not enough for such battle. Theodoric had to search for help in a friend nation, Akronis, situated five thousand miles from Claymored. Their armies alone were not enough for such journey. So, there was only one possible solution, create one single nation, one single kingdom, based on the proud of it's people, on the honor of it's dead soldiers and on the fury of it's king. This is the way that our fantastic journey starts... This is how starts the Throne of the Alliance..."




Overall Meaning

The lyrics of DragonHeart's "The Beginning" narrate a story about two powerful kingdoms, Claymored and Fhalkior, who had an alliance celebration when a sudden darkness descended from the sky. Something terrifying and never felt before, terrible winged creatures, rained down destruction on the two kingdoms, causing a massacre. The armies who fought to protect their kingdoms had no chance of survival. They took shelter in Claymored Castle. Inside the castle, King Theodoric of Claymored swore vengeance with a fiery rage that could terrify the Devil himself, but his army was not enough for such a war. Theodoric sought help from Akronis, a friendly nation situated miles away from Claymored. But the distance was too much, and their armies also were not enough for such a journey. So, to find a solution, Theodoric came up with a plan to unify the kingdoms into a single, powerful nation based on the pride of its people, the honor of its dead soldiers, and the fury of its king. This is how the fantastic journey to the Throne of the Alliance begins.


The narrative of "The Beginning" conveys an epic tale of war and power as two kingdoms unite to form one strong nation to take on a formidable enemy. The violence and terror faced by the people of Claymored and Fhalkior, the rage of King Theodoric, and his plan to unify the kingdoms beautifully portray the determination and strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The lyrics are a tribute to the power of unity, which can conquer even the strongest of foes.
