Siege of Saccade

"Defense of Saccade"

In a distant star, Saccade took its place,
A beacon of hope in the vastness of space.
But shadows did gather, as the sirens did wail,
Enemies approached, their ambition to assail.

(Chorus)
But in the darkest times, when hope seemed to wane,
LUMEN flew in, breaking every chain.
With Evelyn Arnoux, strong and so brave,
Leading her people from the jaws of the grave.

Rockets burst, and the station shook,
Innocent lives, the enemy took.
Families torn, love once so firm,
Now lost in the void, in the endless churn.

But the heart of a hero, it never does yield,
LUMEN's fleet soared, like shields on the field.
Evelyn Arnoux, with passion in her eyes,
Promised her people, through tears and goodbyes.

Awarded to the following LUMEN Participants, with thanks also to allies present!

"Defense of Saccade"

(Verse 1)
In a distant star, Saccade took its place,
A beacon of hope in the vastness of space.
But shadows did gather, as the sirens did wail,
Enemies approached, their ambition to assail.

(Chorus)
But in the darkest times, when hope seemed to wane,
LUMEN flew in, breaking every chain.
With Evelyn Arnoux, strong and so brave,
Leading her people from the jaws of the grave.

(Verse 2)
Rockets burst, and the station shook,
Innocent lives, the enemy took.
Families torn, love once so firm,
Now lost in the void, in the endless churn.

(Chorus)
But the heart of a hero, it never does yield,
LUMEN's fleet soared, like shields on the field.
Evelyn Arnoux, with passion in her eyes,
Promised her people, through tears and goodbyes.

(Bridge)
Loved ones were lost, in the void they did roam,
But with every ship, hope found a home.
Stragglers left behind, in despair and in dread,
But not for long, for LUMEN sped ahead.

(Verse 3)
For every soul, they refused to forsake,
Risking it all, whatever the stake.
With Evelyn leading, her spirit so grand,
They flew through the night, to the promise of land.

(Chorus)
In the darkest times, when all seemed to end,
LUMEN and Evelyn, their spirits won't bend.
Together they stood, as legends unfold,
Saving the lives, of young and the old.

(Outro)
So here's to the heroes, and tales that they spin,
To Evelyn and LUMEN, where love does begin.
In the vastness of space, where stars brightly gleam,
Family's the beacon, that lights up the dream.
