    I have never heard this song before, but words as "Finsterwacht" and "Rondra" are very familiar. It seems to me that the story is taking place in the universe of the german pen & paper roleplaying game "das schwarze Auge" (the dark eye). I used to visit this world quite often in my youth.

      It is, indeed - "Die Finsterwacht" seems to be a new storyline in that universe.

      That's right. It's kind of a collaboration with Ulisses Spiele, the company behind The Dark Eye and the world Aventuria. The editor-in-chief of The Dark Eye Niko Hoch and the famous german author Bernhard Hennen, who wrote some epic novels in the world of Aventuria, have cameo appearances in this music video.

    Saltatio Mortis - a "medieval rock band" and "Blind-Guardian" - German metal veterans of progressive/power/symphonic metal, who have already strongly influenced many international bands. For me, a very unusual collaboration, because Blind-Guardians' epic compositions (15 albums) are actually only sang in English . Hans ("Hansi") Kürsch, the lead singer, is a brilliant "storyteller" and his voice is a true elemental force. You shouldn't miss them any further. I recommend for starters "Time Stands Still" Blind Guardian - Time Stands Still" ua-cam.com/video/eDWO8I1OCvg/v-deo.html (Wacken/Live - get a taste of the Wacken atmosphere -) or "Mirror Mirror" www .ua-cam.com/video/eDWO8I1OCvg/v-deo.html

    It is the first single from the upcoming concept album "Finsterwacht" by Saltatio Mortis, a homage to the German tabletop role-playing game Das Schwarze Auge (DSA)/The Dark Eye (TDE). The box contains the CD, a novel, a tabletop adventure book (in the style of Choose Your Own Adventure) and dice. Saltatio Mortis is a German medieval rock band that also incorporates other musical styles. The group that sets out to light the signal fire to warn the lands of invading orcs is the full band Saltatio Mortis.
    Blind Guardian is featured in the form of lead singer Hansi Kürsch, who sings alone or together with lead singer Alea in many parts.
    The Finsterwacht is a series of signal towers in the mountains of the Finsterkamm, as the last line of defense between the lands of humans and orcs in the county of Heldentrutz, part of the Duchy of Weiden in the Middle Realm, on the continent of Aventuria. The two-part canon towards the end is a prayer to the goddess of war, Rondra :)
    Bernhard Hennen is a well-known fantasy author (The Elves), who also wrote the novel in the concept album package with Torsten Weize (not in the video). He dies on the battlefield as he hands over the map. Niko Hoch is the editor-in-chief for The Dark Eye at Ulisses. He is on the wall at the end.
    PS: The video was filmed in 4 days, with the help of many LARPers - hence the great costumes :)

    You saw Alea (the lead singer of Saltatio Mortis) in the "Feuerschwanz - Warriors of the world united video".
    The song tells part of the story of DSA for Das Schwarze Auge [DSA, The Dark Eye]. It is a tabletop game like D&D, and you actually get the game when you order the album, which I think is seriously cool.

    Howdy! Thanks for your reaction, it was very entertaining to watch. I'd like to give you a rundown of the important people, in order of appearance.
    Alea: vocals. Blond guy with the mohawk, he's the first one to wake up after the first battle scene
    Luzi: Bagpipe player and music video director. He gets an arrow to the neck.
    Bernhard Hennen: the guy who gave the scroll to Alea. One of the main authors of DSA, the RPG the album is concepted around.
    Frank: bass. Black hair, no beard. He dies at the tree.
    Falk: hurdy gurdy, bagpipes. He's the grizzled looking man with grey hair and beard. Also contributed to DSA as an author.
    Jean: drums, guitars, backing vocals, piano. He's got black hair and salt and pepper beard. Runs the band's podcast (in German)
    Till: guitars, bouzouki. Curly haired, he sacrifices himself to save Alea in the forest.
    Elsi: bagpipe player. He's the bald guy. Builds every pipe instrument that the band uses himself.
    That's it from me, hope you have a great day!

    Lyrics of “Finsterwacht” = “Darkwatch”
    [intro]
    Darkness weighs heavily on the land
    The looming peaks of the mountains rise ominously into the sky
    After all these years it's back, that eerie whisper in the night
    What is hidden there in the dark forests?
    A storm is coming, it is getting cold on the Dark Ridge
    But there is hope
    For in the midst of all this gloom, the Guardians of the Watch stand high up on the towers
    Day after day, night after night
    Ready to defend our families and our country with their lives
    When they light their fires, the Goddess has mercy on us
    It is the fires of fear that burn there
    May the heroism of the Guard shine brighter than the light of the flames
    Because they are our last bastion from what lurks for us in the shadows
    And our hope there on the Finsterwacht
    [Verse 1: Alea]
    The flames burn high up
    The sky is black and distant
    A memorial in the darkness
    Every fire is a star
    Say goodbye friends
    Sing one last song
    Sign after sign together into the night
    On the Darkwatch
    [Verse 2: Hansi Kürsch]
    Silent heroes without rest
    The looks sharp as steel
    United, inspired by the courage to die
    Let's stand here one last time
    Be vigilant friends
    The shadows have awakened
    Sign after sign together into the night
    [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch]
    And the world is on fire
    I want to go through the fire with you
    Until our ashes unite for eternity
    And the world is on fire
    Then we'll see each other again
    Beyond here, beyond time
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch]
    And the world is on fire
    I want to go through the fire with you
    Until our ashes unite
    For eternity
    And the world is on fire
    Then we'll see each other again
    Beyond here, beyond time
    For eternity
    [Bridge: Choir, Hansi Kürsch & Alea]
    Fires flare up
    We are the light in the night
    Rondra, hear our choir
    Come stand with us, for we are the guard
    Friends, be careful (fires blazing)
    On the Darkwatch
    Be the shield wall at the end of the world (We are the light in the night)
    Hold the tower (Rondra, hear our choir)
    Also in Orkensturm
    Stand together for we are the watch (Come stand with us for we are the watch)
    Friends, be careful (fires blazing)
    On the Darkwatch
    Be the shield wall at the end of the world (We are the light in the night)
    Hold the tower (Rondra, hear our choir)
    Also in Orkensturm
    Stand together for we are the watch (Come stand with us for we are the watch)
    [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch, only Hansi Kürsch]
    And the world is on fire
    I want to go through the fire with you
    Until our ashes unite
    Forever (Forever)
    And the world is on fire
    Then we'll see each other again
    Beyond here, beyond time
    For eternity

    I suggest more from Blind Guardian: "Blood Of The Elves" for Example. Most lyrics of them are about "The Lord of the Rings" or "The Silmarillion". More "Mid-Aged" Music by Saltatio Mortis.

    Someone already mentioned all the essentials.
    As of the style of Music: I'd call it Medieval/Folk-Metal.
    Now Blind Guardian, the other band featuring here (who did contribute to the Music but had no business in gong LARPing like that) are supposed to be among the inventors of European Power Metal.
    But like Saltatio Mortis, they have a reputation for Fantasy-themed songs.
