Dead Hand 07:34
A blackened layer coats the earth Far beyond this land of decay, Withered trees among a shattered world In dust this empire shall remain Behold the Blinding Light Harvesting the life Born of the dead hand Malice of the gods Purge the water dry Ashes of the dead Extinguish the flames Only ashes remain Beyond the wretched dead Sing a somber hymn of dust Under the blackened void A fragile world scorched by bloodlust Only I stand as god To be worshipped by none Disciple of the void Harbinger of the Eschaton Graves among the cosmos Uprooted by the cold Beneath the blackened sky Of eternal Majesty We praise oblivion, As the stars fall into the sea. Chaos has been reborn From ashen cold hands. Visions from beyond the void, Ye shall dance among the damned. Broken my will A god in disguise My blind revenge Has stabbed my eyes These bitter thoughts Freeze my mind Sever this hand This dead hand is mine Ashes stretch from sea to sea Malice I cannot retain Drowned redemption in the flames Misery for eternity All life in my dominion Malformed for all time Crushed by hatred Defiling all of mankind

Deep within these woodlands the wind is not found, gone too are all manner of creatures and thus, no sound. This deathlike silence is unlike any that I have endured, I find my thoughts cloudy, and my vision obscured. My breath is slowed with hypothermia setting in, stinging cold rime besets my frostbitten skin. This creeping numbness does nothing to subside my agony, not that this event could be construed as a tragedy. Aspirations of untold magic and might bring me to this place of murderous blight. Prophetic scrolls told of a force that no mortal should seek, I thought the warning more fitting for the moral and meek. Rising in the sky I see the fruits of my labor take flight, a stirring sea of celestial dissonance erupts into the night. This mountain before me, cut nearly in twain, spilling all the wonders that lie in the agape domain. Though the air is riddled with this bloodied ascension, the chaos unfolding is not what holds my attention. Aspirations of untold magic and might bring me to this place of murderous blight. Prophetic scrolls told of a force that no mortal should seek, I thought the warning more fitting for the moral and meek. It's unclear if it's just me growing delusional with death at bay, but I find my self staring at the trees around me, unable to look away. A crystalline glaze covers everything in sight, soon to be lost. In the last breath I will take, my eyes set upon this intrinsic frost Deep within these woodlands the wind is not found, gone too are all manner of creatures and thus, no sound. This deathlike silence is unlike any that I have endured, I find my thoughts cloudy, and my vision obscured.
