The Siege of El-Kan (song)

'The Siege of El-Kan' is a modern Daemrian folk song. Composed by Willen Zacaro, a former Daemrian soldier who took part in the original El-Kan siege, the song recounts the events of the siege as a tall-tale. Shortly following its publication, 'the Siege of El-Kan' rapidly gained popularity all across northern Karas, and sustained its position as the most requested song for a bard for nearly a year. The music for this song is typically provided by a Daemrian Long-Lute.

Lyrics
A dark day for El-Kan had come, as the cannons of Daemr beat on it like drums

Yet when the future looked gray, the Heroes of El-Khan came to save the day

The blind warrior’s blade,

With Hissuarian aide,

Smashed through the Daemrian soldier’s blockade

And the Enlightened priest,

With Elkler from the East

Together confronted the ancient Urr beast

But when the flagship tried to enter the fray

The Tiefling and his Dragon pursued it like prey

And the Mrth’ri did wail,

As he tore through the sail

With the wreckage of three other ships in his trail

And as hard as they tried,

There was nowhere to hide

And into the port did the flagship collide!

And all who saw knew it was done.

The Heroes of El-Kan have won!
