Legend says the continental homeland of the North Saxons was destroyed in a devastating cataclysm, but a leading Saxon wise-man managed to strap his newborn son into a catapult and launch him to safety! Under the rainy skies of Britain, he achieved powers beyond those of mortal Saxons: more powerful than a ox-drawn cart, able to outrun a speeding arrow, and leap over the tallest megalithic stone structures! Meanwhile, back in the real world - I learned a while back that Saxon was derived from 'sax', a type of sword. So the Saxons must've had a bit of a rep - the 'Sword Guys' of Europe. At least you knew what you were in for, I suppose.

Pillage, rape and bloodshed I guess.
For the Saxons to be invited in to protect the Romano British from the feared Picts must mean that the Saxons had one hell of a fighting reputation

Does the song specifically say that they're coming from Earth?
(I don't care about the lyrics, but I love the intro music to that song)

(I don't care about the lyrics, but I love the intro music to that song) Not really, but they're singing in an earth language, so, unless English is popular in Proxima Centauri this time of year, or it's been translated from the original Cataphralk'A...  I loved that song, back in my college days. Pretty much all the hair-bands, really...

All the aliens I know speak English. I don't wear a Universal Translator, so I assume that they are polite enough to translate for me.

I dunno, sounds to me like they were once from Earth, left for somewhere else, and are headed for Venus, but maybe they'll come back to Earth, who can tell?
