Father's room is dark
In precious time, our hearts will be alight
This floor is cold
And I'm afraid
I am not afraid of conjuring her,
Back from the grave
Whose are these voices quickly approaching me?
"Your sacrifice is not sufficient;
We'll need plenty more before you set your sights to her."
Wires are crawling out, struggling at my leg
I hear my brother scream
As he is consumed like a burning tree

Not again
Confiscate my arms, my heart
I must reclaim his soul at least!
This sudden dream is a distraction
A backwards creature writhed in guts, in pus,
In a mass of putrid flesh from which it cannot escape
Locking eyes with eyes
As bright as the sun reflecting off of clouds on such a beautiful day
If only this could be illusive
Frozen by the loss of blood,
Dragging myself to steel
Inching myself to this familiar body
Painting a seal on this familiar body
All's black

Time is priceless
This bond is unconditional
I've abandoned limbs just to claim a part of you
Expressing sorrow
With degradation pouring from my eyes
Inhaling blood
Blacking out amidst the futile cries

Weightless then, clutched in the arms of a giant man,
This dream is surreal,
Sailing through the gusts of wind from hell
Weightless then, clutched in the arms of a giant man,
This dream is surreal,
Sailing through the gusts of wind and the rain

I am Elturial,
Called beyond the gate to serve
Sylvester Alédoe is nothing but a shell
Slyvester Alédoe has conjured me to protect him through a chasm

One thousand years of lethargy
Botched by one's personal misfortune
"Djinni," he says,
"You cannot oppose the words I speak."
As if he didn't know the laws bestowed upon me

I've swept away hastily with the obligation in my mind
Instinctively, confidently employing my inner eye
To seek out this instrument;
To seek out this instrument
That he accredits to be such a protector;
The redeemer of his own flesh and blood
I've come to the concealed amounts of age-old acquaintances
Disastrously bonded to my master's hand,
I must desperately carry out this witless plan
Kicking up dust as I disapparate
Within arm's reach of the talisman,
Exposing myself to all

I am Cimmerian Shamballa

I breeze as but a spirit uninterrupted,
To consent with the hallifalations Behrathas, Aehnkantos
"I stand before you
A fleshless temple from Xzorian with the last talisman,
Capable of the destruction of Uraithan.
You are more than familiar with our compromise.
I've taken apart myself to suit you,
Now just bring me to my eyes."
"Give us the talisman!
We've transferred more than you deserve.
Eternal life to a doltish man is nothing we've been known to do."
The seal inside this marionette
Has quickly come to wither
My last chance at mortality
Is to devastate these poisoned lands
"Ohrelae Untai, Ohrelae."
The haze within their eyes begins to solidify
Light attempts to breach the sky
The steaming ground begins to break
Like a thirsting mouth to swallow up their lives

The seal inside this marionette
Has quickly come to wither
I must depart this broken shell
To join the translucent
Uraitahn is but a wasteland

Splintering blistered fingers
Chalk smears cake my body white
Sweat perspiring down my face
Retracing lines to tighten the seal
Clandestinely twining
With devilry coursing through the night
My wicked enchantments hurl my body
As it's careening through dust
Through dust and light I feel I've made it
As my heart climbs through my ribs
It tells me so;
The specter shows me so
The darkness surrounding is growing
As the specter sheds to begin anew
Within its body they are glowing on through her
Their faces shine fiercely with such deep sinew
This crooked mystery envelops all space around me
As the many face speak as one
"Why have you come here;
What has brought you through?
Why have you come here;
What has brought you through to my domain?!"
My body falters,
I feel myself begin to crumble
As rickety noises force themselves from my throat
I begin to form some sense into an explanation
"I need to see this, to feel this, to breathe!
To see, to feel, to breathe in your miasma."
"Take refuge in the carcass, my darkening soul
Albeit by the force of beauty incarnate,
Do not release yourself into this world
Here, your essence is soluble."

I am Cimmerian Shamballa

My transcience slept cold,
Waiting for the gate to open,
To release my father,
To release my carrion
I've fled across lands of ice and fire,
In a striving search for the cryptic scriptures
That will restore my soul
To its flesh and bone
Long have I waited to meet your eyes;
To delve inside;
To steal through your mind;
To utilize the plans inside

These pages are false
Where is the remembrance of the city that's fallen;
The millions of lives
Given into the creation of this?

"Oh, young and sightless one,
You'll never see.
You'll never be as whole as we.
As whole as we.
As whole as we you'll never be."
I've swum through years
In dreams of light and dust
In my pursuit of solidarity
This cannot be veritable
These writings are too passionless
These actions made are too immoral
So you are here, Eternal Savior,
With such a voice so passionless,
Oh, my warm and sweet familiarity

My transcience slept cold,
Waiting for the gate to open,
To release my father;
To release my carrion
Beyond the portal to Shamballa
Is where it lies in wait with her

In a distant realm where body and soul divide:
"We are the hallifalacious,
The guardians of this whole.
In this realm where mortality capitulates,
We'll feed for eons upon your temple."
Behrathas, Aehnkantos cease to deplete from this consumption
Welcoming in all thriving flesh
Become ethereal to wander through Uraitahn
Welcome to Uraitahn,
The path between your vale and Shamballa
Become ethereal
Carry on

Deep within the bowels of the hallifalacious' waste,
The fulcrum of a practiced past
Emanates within my mind's eye
Escape from eternity is borned in my essence
The key to the light is with the guardians
A compensation of legendary dimensions
"Here in Uraitahn,
The path between my vale and Shamballa,
I have become ethereal.
I will bring you the last talisman."

Reside in pentacle;
Invoke the djinni;
Be secret, stay safe
Keep your name;
Keep your name!
End spoken incantation;
Smoke appears within the summoning circle
To which my voice begins to trail
"Only by my will an assignment is formed.
Demon, you are mine!"
"I am no conjurer of tricks.
No childish necromancer
Without the intelligence to bind you.
So carry out my demands,
Then at my call return to me.
Clandestinely make your travels.
Bring me the talisman!
Go, hence, fetch me the talisman.
I will call upon you at sunrise.
Once this next day begins,
I will have a fortune more than fable."

I contort my energy
To bring this bloody servant back to me
"Have you achieved my demanded thievery?
Have you successfully attained
That which I believe to be the only key
In passing through Uraitahn unscathed?"
"Oh yes, my eternally loathed one,
I have reached and have returned without personal detriment.
Your will is great,
Your heart is strong,
But in these actions you are but a breathing carrion.
Beyond this summoning circle you are forbidden,
Except by my will.
I have since irradiated.
I feel I've assimilated every single necessity
To carry out safe passage through the gate."
