This song goes along with the general story of the album as a reference to the whole general idea of the story, just in a different time period. Betrayal. Greed. All of the aspects of the over all story of the album, but sort of in the form of a story book. Which is my point. I think that this song is a book that the main character is reading to his child (daughter, I believe), sort of like a bedtime story. This would make sense as it only places references to the main story, but doesn't actually mention the main characters. He want's to show his daughter what he's going through, but put it in a more epic bedtime story.
But anyways, just my speculation. Open to all interpretation.
Okay, so here's my theory:
