The Ballad of the Six is a song of Victory Day. It tells how six Chain Wardens rose together as defenders of the light against the darkness.1

Six Chain Wardens rose, defenders of the light.1

The six

The ballad gives each of the six heroes a single image:

  • Nalfein, remembered for cunning likened to the deadly kiss of a serpent;
  • Tyra, whose arrows flew true through the night;
  • Raga, whose rage blazed like a wildfire;
  • Alcarin, whose sword moved like a deadly dance;
  • Gildor, whose spells poured out in a magical torrent;
  • Balath the paladin, the embodiment of light, who led the charge with his sword shining.1

The battle

In the ballad the six face the grim avatar of the Dark One. At the heart of the battle Balath steps forward and strikes the final blow, and the Dark One is defeated.1

The song closes on the heroes' sacrifice: they stood tall in the face of darkness and gave everything for their duty.1

The histories of the day tell that the Chain Wardens, supported by Archon and the High Church, defeated the darkness through a ritual, and that many of them paid for the victory with their lives.1
