THE NIGHTMARE EPIC
- Ponies with Turisas
[Click here for the accompanying song]
FINAL PART
The Magic of Friendship
a) A Castle in Nightfall
Dangerous forest they left behind
Across the gorge led the bridge
Tired, yet determined to move on:
The end of their journey is near
Through the forest ever free
Through deception and beasts
Final challenge lies ahead:
Bygone castle of Sun and Moon
Ruins in nightfall
Stand in horizon
"Our time is running out,
Wish we are not too late."
Onwards…
"Ignited by a Spark
Sixth element appears."
So was told…
Elements of Harmony
Gems from infinity
Forgotten in history
Hidden through centuries
Holding might transcendental
Artifacts of ancient force:
Power of Harmony…
b) The Confrontation
In the Hall of the Sisters the stones lay in rest
Five of them, the sixth one just left
Friends give her space for this complex spell
She needs peace to focus on task:
"Come forth, final element,
your sisters, here they are.
For you I call the spark,
in your powers lies our hope…"
Disrupted sorcery
Ponynapped by witchery
Onto the throne
The Nightmare Moon appears:
"You've lost."
Within a blink of her eyes
Shards lost their inner lights
Last hope was gone…
"Elements of Harmony
By my hooves they shatter now!
Even after all you've tried,
your pathetic trust and faith
only ended to see my fame!
Sun gone, day gone, your princess all gone…"
From the outer tower
Lights in the dark
A sign for the worrying friends:
Hurry to the tower
She's all alone
She needs her friends for aid…
c) Rainbow of Light, of Harmony, of Friends
Shattered are the pieces of the ancient stone
Within them their power, it seems …
But the voices of companions encourage her to see:
Not broken: hidden…
"You're wrong, Nightmare Moon
the Elements, here they are.
Within our friendship they lie
no force can break them apart."
Kindness, Honesty,
Laughter, Loyalty,
Generosity,
And the last one by a spark:
Magic and Love
Elements of Harmony
Power of Friendship
Their forces combined
Over despair they rise
Over might of the Dark
Rainbow of Light
Called forth by Friendship's might
The Nightmare's last reign into dust shall fall
"My friends,
Dear friends,
Through our hearts, sun will dawn…"

LISTEN THIS SONG WITH THE POEM FOR MAXIMUM IMPACT [link]
EDIT renamed, fixed, and added a whole new part
And thus ends the saga of ancient myths, of centuries-old crudge, of the rise of eternal night... and of the magic and friendship that is "My Little Pony". And really, what could be more suitable grande finale than "Miklagard Overture"? A triumphant yet slightly bittersweet closure.
Thanks for anyone who reads this from start to finish line, thank you the great artists providing thumbnails, thanks to my bro for proofreading.
And thanks once again to everyone who reads this, likes this, views this worth recognition and recommends this to their friends to read.
Thank you.
UPDATE The Nightmare Epic has now a sequel! Begin The Discordant Tale here [link]

Poems will follow the musical direction of the album, each one based on a single song of it, but with an original content.
