Armory - Quest for the Fleece lyrics

Legend tells of ancient heroes Led by Jason, an epic quest began Delayed on the Isle of Lemnos By misfortune fell Kyzicos Hylas was forever lost in Mysia Sailed on without Heracles Who could not leave his friend behind Landed in Thrace seeking Phineus Blessed with divine gift of prophecy Captured the Harpies so torturous In return advised how to reach the Golden Fleece On a journey to claim the Fleece In lands far away It hangs from an enchanted tree Perilous ride, no fear inside To Hera they pray The Argonauts sail far and wide Pa** through the clashing cliffs But wait till a south wind drifts Release a dove in the air If it makes it through then you must row on swiftly If the flight fails then you will be doomed! To obtain the Fleece at Colchis Plow a field wielding fire-breathing beasts From teeth sowed into the field Undead warriors were revealed With the aid of Medea the hydra sleeps Aeetes, the king betrayed, his reign will cease Dangers on the voyage home, the Sirens' breath Talos held the ship at bay but bled to d**h Sail back to Greece, held high the Fleece The power it holds Is destined to restore the peace Followed their guide across seas wide As legend is told The Argonauts sail on with pride Jason returned, defeated Acastus Reclaimed the throne of Iolcus
