Before the events of RWBY
A human Salem is locked in a tower by her father. Salem sat on her bed, tears fell from her eyes as days have past.
Outside a young man with a army marches to the tower, He raises his staff and shouts out "Charge!"
(Carolus Rex)
'All embrace me
It's my time to rule at last
Fifteen years have I been waiting
To sit upon my throne
No allegiance
I will swear no oath
Crowned by god not by the church
As my power is divine
They thought I was too young to rule the land
Just as they failed to understand
Born to rule
My time has come'
The battle was epic, The army led by the young man named Ozma raised his staff and casted magic against his opponets and to help his forces.
'I was chosen by heaven
Say my name when you pray
To the skies
See Carolus rise
With the lord my protector
Make them bow to my will
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies
See Carolus rise'
"Advance!" Ozma shouted and engaged any beast that was bestowed to him, Ozma's magic is powerful so he bested any creature in his way.
However his forces lay dead with the enemy, mourning for his men. Ozma marched into the palace and combated Salem's father.
'Proved in battle
Led my men to victory
No man alive or dead commands me
I answer to the lord
Hear my orders
Question me and die
What I say was said in heaven
And so it shall be done
I know I was destined to rule alone
All for myself I have claimed the throne
Born to rule
My time is now'
The battle became fierce, Ozma staggered a bit but regained his footing and casted a another magical blast at the man launching him backwards.
'I was chosen by heaven
Say my name when you pray
To the skies
See Carolus rise
With the lord my protector
Make them bow to my will
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies
See Carolus rise
Framåt Karoliner
Fiendens dom är här
Låt oss krossa dom
Kasta in dom genom helvetets portar
All that's thine
Shall be mine
There's no stopping me
All over Europe my rule shall be questioned by none'
Ozma rushed at his enemy placed his hand against his chest and fired a energy blast through him blasting him into the throne room.
'All I see
Give to me
That is my decree
My will be done
They thought I was too young to rule the land
Just as they failed to understand
Born to rule
My time is now'
Ozma continue to battle. Magic against Magic, Light against Dark.
'I was chosen by heaven
Say my name when you pray
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies
With the lord my protector
Make them bow to my will
To the skies
See Carolus rise
To the skies
See Carolus rise'
Once his opponet fell, Ozma open the door and met Salem. Ozma rescused Salem and soon the two fell in love with each other.
However soon Ozma succumb to illness and past, Salem went to gods to revive her belove to which he was but was destroyed and revived again.
Salem lashed at the gods but failed and was cursed with immortality. Salem tried suicide but failed once she was in the land of darkness she threw herself into the grimm pool but survived only to be transformed.
Soon she met her lover's incarnation and the two had daughters and became rulers of a land of their own.
However history of Renmant wasn't to gently. Series of wars have broken out in the times and Ozma did his best to quell the fighting.
(Lifetime of War)
'Two ways to view the world
So similar at times
Two ways to rule the world
To justify their crimes
By kings and queens young men are sent to die in war
Their propaganda speaks those words been heard before
Two ways to view the world brought Europe down in flames
Two ways to rule'
Armies of many nations and race gather and battle each other in endless and bloody conflicts.
'Has man gone insane
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war
It spreads like disease
There's no sign of peace
Religion and greed cause millions to bleed
Three decades of war'
Ozma held his beloved wife and kids close to him, he loved them dearly and would do anything to protect them from these conflicts.
'From dawn to dawn they're fighting die where they stand
The fog of war lies thick when armies scorch the land
When all of Europe is burning what can be done
They've been to war a decade two more to come
Long way from home
(Döpas och dö i strid)
Lifetime at war
Has man gone insane
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war
It spreads like disease
There's no sign of peace
Religion and greed cause millions to bleed
Three decades of war'
Bodies have piled through Remnant and the fighting seemed endless but there will be an end.
'When they face death they're all alike
No right or wrong
Rich or poor
No matter who they served before
Good or bad
They're all the same
Rest side by side now
Has man gone insane
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war
It spreads like disease
There's no sign of peace
Religion and greed cause millions to bleed
Three decades of war
Has man gone insane
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war
It spreads like disease
There's no sign of peace
Religion and greed cause millions to bleed
Three decades of war'
The Wars have ended but at a heavy cost, Salem has became different she went on how humanity is changing and they need to be enforced but this didn't set well.
Soon a fight broke out between the lovers the fight was terrible, possibly killing their beloved daughters in the process.
Salem killed Ozma where he stood and she left for the Land of Darkness.
Soon their kingdom fell apart.
(Long Live the King)
'Dreams are seldom shattered, by a bullet in the dark
Rulers come and rulers go, will our kingdom fall apart?
Who shall we now turn to, when our leaders lost their heart?
Lives are lost but at what cost, will the grand dream fall apart?
Killed by his own or by his foes, turned the tide
Three hundreds years still no one knows, the secret remains
Broken dreams so grand, sing of his final stand, long live Carolus
Brought by soldiers hand, back to the fatherland, long live Carolus Rex
Brought him back to Sweden, where we put him in a chest
Years of war and agony, now the king can finally rest
What will be uncovered, from that cold November night
Fredrikshald, what happened there, will it ever come to light?
Killed by his own or by his foes, turned the tide
Three hundreds years still no one knows, the secret remains
Broken dreams so grand, sing of his final stand, long live Carolus
Brought by soldiers hand, back to the fatherland, long live Carolus Rex
For their honor, for their glory
For the men who fought and bled
A soldier from Sweden remembers the dead
Broken dreams so grand, sing of his final stand, long live Carolus
Brought by soldiers hand, back to the fatherland, long live Carolus
Broken dreams so grand, sing of his final stand, long live Carolus
Brought by soldiers hand, back to the fatherland, long live Carolus Rex'
Decades ago, Salem is what she is now the ruler of Grimm and waiting for Ozma's incarnation to appear so she may kill him one more.
(Rise of Evil)
'An invasion is coming but when will it start?
Who will be first to fall? who will be last to stand?
Who will stop all this madness that has consequences no man understand?
No man, no land!'
