Towers in the dark

When the dragons came
We had to call the rain of ice
To tame their fire
And drag them out of the sky
 
The rain still falls today
And forces us to live underground
 
But before our banishment
Our wise ones sent out the Rakatirim
To preserve the light
 
The Rakatirim are heroes of old
Who have the ability to store energy in their bodies
And let it shine for others as a light
 
They fought the dragons
And took their fire inside of themselves
They withdrew when we called the rain
For they could not kill the dragons
 
And so today they serve us
As guides in the night
 
The ability to preserve their energy
And let it shine as light for others
 
Makes them towers in the dark
