The adventures of King Arthur continue!
The Spirit of Freedom is the second part of the trilogy and the sequel to Shining Time released last month.
The Spirit of Freedom was recorded and mixed back in 2010-2014 for our second album Act II: Silent Narratives. Once again, the song was originally intended to be used as a bonus song for possible Japan import, but for some reason or another Japan was never conquered and thus it was never released.
The lyric video is based on gig and other photos in Adamantra camp from 2010-2015.

Lyrics:
Riding through the sacred land with knights by my side
After long grueling service has lasted so many years
Till day of liberation in my sight
But final order still waiting for us now
The threat lurking beyond the great wall
Salvation of the heir
Godchild of the Pope
Fighting for the world does not exist
Last outpost of the freedom
Chariot of fortunate ones choose their destiny for eternity
Gathering of noble knights for preparing of final battle
Swear an oath to live my life gloriously in honour of their memory
So far away in ocean white enemies from north come closer
To invasion and terror destroying everything with power
Of evil eye and will
They leave behind nothing ever
But cold eternal pain and silent grief in valley of misery
All burning ruins and frozen refugees
Adorning memory of desecrated land
Fighting for the world does not exist
Last outpost of the freedom
Chariot of fortunate ones choose their destiny for eternity
Gathering of noble knights for preparing of final battle
Swear an oath to live my life gloriously in honour of their memory
(Guitar solo: Petri Mäkilä)
Facing the beast eye to eye
Winds from deep ancient woods whispering
“Finally a man worth killing as death is only a dream tonight”
Gates are opening
By against the overwhelming enemy we are sealing our fate forever
And by the power of revenge and miracle
To the last man standing
Banishment for all foes
Fighting for the world does not exist
Last outpost of the freedom
Chariot of fortunate ones choose their destiny for eternity
Gathering of noble knights for preparing of final battle
Cavalry of justice pacifies our hearts and leads us to the victory
