By-Tor and the Snowdog for Shadowdark

By-Tor returns, but this time he's the villain for some reason. I think Geddy admitted in his bio that they didn't realize this for years until some fan asked about it. So first the lyrics.

1. At The Tobes of Hades  

The Tobes of Hades lit by flickering torchlight

The netherworld is gathered in the glare


Prince By-Tor takes the cavern to the northlight

The sign of Eth is rising in the air

By-Tor – Knight of Darkness,
Centurion of evil – Devil’s Prince

II. Across the Styx

Across the River Styx out of the lamplight

His nemesis is waiting at the gate

The Snow Dog – ermine glowing in the dampnight

Coal black eyes, shimmering with hate

By-Tor and the Snow Dog
Square for battle, let the fray begin…..

III. The Battle (instrumental)

i) Challenge And Defiance

ii) 7/4 War Furor

iii) Aftermath

iv) Hymn of Triumph
IV. Epilogue 

The battle over and the dust is clearing

Disciples of the Snow Dog sound the knell

Rejoicing echoes as the dawn is nearing

By-Tor in defeat retreats to Hell

Snow Dog – is victorious

The land of the Overworld is saved again
