Introduction

There are two Anaxi National Anthems. One, the official version, was written by the galdori and has a very uplifting message about triumph through adversity. The second version is primarily sung by the human resistance. Its message is similar but lacks the blind worship of the official anthem and places the blame for the problems of the kingdom squarely on the shoulders of the galdori. This version is never sung in public for fear of political repercussions.

Galdori Anthem - O Bright Anaxas
O bright Anaxas,
tremble we before thee
glorious kingdom,
this we pray:

O dear Anaxas,
never let the night fall,
Our goddess, keep the
dark at bay.

Lead us through valleys,
mist and mountains mighty
over the Tors and
forest deep

Though there be demons
growling at our doorstep
Lend us your light, our
souls to keep.


Human Anthem - O Dark Anaxas
O dark Anaxas,
tremble we before thee.
ruled now by tyrants
cold and gray

O dear Anaxas
deliver us from nightfall
Out from the shadows,
to the day.

Lead us through valleys,
mist and mountains mighty
over the Tors and
forest deep

Though there be demons
growling at our doorstep
Lend us your light, our
spirits keep.
