[Jareth]
In my dark Labyrinth I was tossing and turning
All my nightmares made real oh how can this be --
the words slipped out of her lips --
My kingdom fallen to bits!
Then I opened my eyes
And the blame was on me!!

I was once the most magical Fae and Unseelie.
When the Courts cast me out I found my own way!
A kingdom abandoned by time
a king at the start of his prime!
but six words spoken
tore it away!

[Goblins]
from the dark labyrinth magic will find her
In the dark labyrinth night has no dawn!

[Jareth]
Revenge will be so sweet

[Jareth AND Goblins]
When the queen falls to my feet!

[ALL]
In the dark labyrinth

[Jareth screaming / lightning crashing]
She'll be gone!

[Jareth]
I can feel that my powers are slowly returning!
Dawn my cape and war paint then i'll venture outside!
As my armies fall into place
I'll see the look on her face!
her world is forfeit now due to her pride!

[Goblins]
From the dark labyrinth sorrow will find her!

[Jareth]
Sorrow's the least I can do!

[Goblins]
In the dark labyrinth evil will brew.

[Jareth]
She'll feel her memory elapse
then her world will will collapse.

[ALL]
In the dark labyrinth

[Jareth]
revenge'll be mine!

[Goblins]
from the dark labyrinth
a new curse will find her
Find her!
In the dark labyrinth
your nightmares come true.
Doom her!

[Jareth]
she saw a villain in me --
you'll see how bad i can be!

[Jareth spell]
Come my armies,
Rise for your master,
spread your mischief now!
Flood her world with
Anguish here after
She'll know my pain somehow

imagine if you will. Sarah has left the goblin kingdom in ruins not to mention left behind a king with no way to directly retaliate against this swift and painful defeat granted to him by the girl he did everything for.

now the underground is a dark and terrible place. the sky is black and filled with storm clouds. mist covers the ground concealing deadly traps. crashes of lightning and black flamed sconces provide the only light to guide travelers through the dark and rain. in addition the aftermath of her attacks have shattered the barrier separating the underground from the far plane. new evils leak into Jareth's kingdom each day strengthening his armies but making travel through nearly impossible.

Making an alliance with the near by kingdom inside the far plane Jareth has been working along side the powerful immortals that live there to draft a powerful curse using their magic that would be capable of working through Sarah's shield and could only be reversed by Jareth.
