Mariano´s intro post - The Halls of the spring

In the depths of the forest, where no man ever ever stepped in, was the Spring of Lawën. Only the oldest elves knew the legend that accompanied the place...

“When the great forest does not wake again with the rays of dawn, when spring does not bloom anymore at the King’s Glade, when the end comes to Athel Loren… The halls of the spring will be reopened and the elven people of ancient times will dance to melodies of hunting" 

Hi, my name is Mariano and from the first day I started to play Warhammer one of my dreams has been to have a fully painted Wood Elves army

Lets everybody sing the marching song ‘Revenge is all around’ (As everybody know, Wet Wet Wet copied an ancient elves song to create his biggest hit ‘Love is all around’)

You feel it in your boughs
You feel it in your roots
The fear is all around you
And so the feeling grows
It’s written on the wind
It’s everywhere on the woods
So if you really love the wellspring (of Lawën)
Come on and wake up now
You know it’s magic, it has always being
The Queen has came you know that feel
There’s no beginning, there’ll be no end
‘Cause on your strength we can depend
I see your face before me
As I lay on my dreams
You cannot get still
After all the things they did
You gave your promise to me and I gave mine to you
I need someone beside me for the revenge I want to do
You know I need you, I always will
My mind’s broken up by the pain that I feel
There’s no beginning, there’ll be no end
‘Cause on revenge we can depend
You feel the pain it is growing
It’s written in the wind
Oh you know what I need
So if you really really love me,
Come on and wake up you now,
Come on and wake up you now,
Come on and fight,
Come on and fight,
Come on and wake up you now,
Come on and fight,
Come on and fight,
Come on and wake up you now,
Come on and wake up you now,
Come on and wake up you now.
