Bound Together
[Verse 1]
Their journey began
On a barren waste where the reader arrived
Afraid and alone
When they arrived
The Book of Rites awakened the Nightwings
And ignited the flame

[Chorus]
They follow the stars
Bound together
Strands in a braid 'til the end

[Verse 2]
We sing of the last
Of the Nightwings who
Having broken the cycle
Shall live on in song

Hedwyn was there
And proved to all that he was no deserter
He stayed true 'til the end

Captain Jodariel
Keeping watch over all of the Nightwings
She stayed true 'til the end
Rukey Greentail
Small in size but vast in commitment
He stayed true 'til the end

[Chorus]
They follow the stars
Bound together
Strands in a braid 'til the end

[Verse 3]
The Moon-Touched Girl
Hears the Scribes in the world all around her
She stayed true 'til the end

Ti'zo the wise
Ever faithful to the cause of the Nightwings
He stayed true 'til the end

Sir Gilman the bold
Ever in his quest, finding honor in glory
He stayed true 'til the end

Pamitha Theyn
Borne on guilty wings, ever seeking forgiveness
She stayed true 'til the end
[Chorus]
They follow the stars
Bound together
Strands in a braid 'til the end

[Bridge]
Bound together
Spirits tethered
Strands unbroken
Scribes awoken

[Verse 4]
The great mastermind
Volfred Sandlewood saw his plans turn to action
He stayed true 'til the end

The bog-dweller Bertrude
Kept her foes at bay with her finest enchantments
She stayed true 'til the end

The reader at last
Made the Nightwings whole, having bound them together
They stayed true 'til the end

[Chorus]
They follow the stars
Bound together
Strands in a braid 'til the end
They follow the stars
Bound together
Strands in a braid 'til the end
[Outro]
Now at the end
As we bid farewell and return to the stars
We shall find our way home
We shall find our way home
We shall find our way home
