Bearer of the crimson
Descend into the abyss of desolation
Blood begets blood
As the fabric of existence is rent asunder
Violently wrenched from the realm of reality
The crimson realms beckon
At the temporal junction point
Hidden from prying eyes
Rise from the abyss
The decision is upon you
Embrace the flicker of warmth within
Or condemn all to your desires
Strip the flesh from bone
To forge your divine armor
The die was cast aeons past
The Invoker prostrates before us
Speak the words to rend flesh asunder
Your sacrifice, your very essence
Clear the path for rebirth
As chaos reigns below
Sanctify the offering
As apostles revel in their feast
Conception
Gestation
Bring forth the progeny
In a deluge of sensations
Carnage of the chosen
Bring forth the progeny
Assume your rightful visage
Take your rightful place among us
Beneath a sun fivefold extinguished
Initiating the era of eternal darkness
Years of torment and degradation
Transgressions beyond measure
Time's relentless cruelty
Seize what rightfully belongs to you
The Godhand bears witness
The Godhand grants liberation
Manifest the truth within
Invoke your sacrifice and ascend
Branded, doomed to perish
Prey to the Apostles
Butchered and consumed
Trampled and disfigured
Bring forth the tribute
Restrain him so that he may witness
I have transcended mortal flesh
Savouring every moment with this plaything
Tainting all you love unto eternity
Engraved upon your consciousness eternally
Immerse your visage in the viscera
Of your comrades
And witness as I profane
All that you hold dear
Beneath vermilion heavens
The ritual reaches its climax
A lake of crimson remains for all to behold
The prophecy is fulfilled
All hail the fifth

Immortal

Anguished cries pierce the air
Echoing through the shadows
Their reverberations linger
A haunting melody of despair
Down the obscured passage,
The atmosphere thickens with the scent of death
Within the depths of this stronghold
Echoes of eternal torment and torn bodies
Numerous souls meet their demise,
Succumbing to the insatiable hunger of the immortal
An appetite unquenchable by mere mortal means
A craving for eternal conflict
Through this corridor veiled in darkness
Piles of corpses form a morbid spectacle
A spectacle of brutality and carnage
Where flesh is rent asunder for all to witness
Bearing witness to atrocities untold
But even this does not satiate his hunger
The apostle yearns for yet more
Contemplating the carnage bathed in dim light
His fury swells once more
Down the obscured passage,
The atmosphere thickens with the scent of death
Within the depths of this stronghold
Echoes of eternal torment and torn bodies
Numerous souls meet their demise,
Succumbing to the insatiable hunger of the immortal
An appetite unquenchable by mere mortal means
A craving for eternal conflict
Manifestations beyond mortal comprehension
Power beyond the grasp of mortal minds
Eyes gleaming with lethal intent pierce the darkness
As the colossal blade is poised to descend
Once more claiming its prey
Every strike brims with a thirst for blood
Unyielding strength obliterating all in its path
A grin of sadistic pleasure adorns his visage
A worthy adversary for his blade.
Risking all in a single, fateful swing
Steel rends through immortal flesh and blood
Such defiance exacts a toll
Revealing the apostle's true form
A terror of monumental proportions
Exulting in the sight of his own ichor
Consumed by a frenzy of rage and lust for battle
The Immortal unleashes his true nature
His sole desire realized at last
All that remains is to sate his endless hunger
No shackles remain to contain his true might
In savage fury, hell is unleashed

Sacrificed

Standing as my soldiers
Loyal unwavering comrades
In the altar of my dream
Those were not my friends
For a friendship to be forged
A reason must exist beyond me
Pursue a vision bespoke
In my dominion a mere foundation stone
Witness my majestic ascension
Woven in corpses and guts
Achieved through your will and your trust
Witness my majestic ascension
How far will you go
To fulfil your destiny
How many shall succumb
Paving the path
The path to eternity
The path to eternity
Imbue your very essence
In the manifestation of your dream
Never falter in its defense
Even against me
Even against me
Those were the sacrificed
Those were the sacrificed
Conceived to meet demise
Conceived to meet demise
Your demise
How far will you go
To fulfill your destiny
How many shall succumb
Paving the path
The path to eternity
How far will you go
To fulfill your destiny
How many shall succumb
Paving the path
The path to eternity
Witness my dream, a tapestry so grand
Woven with strands of blood-soaked sand
Your loyalty is my coinage to spend
As I reach for my dream you will be dead
Engulfed by your delusions
This path will be your disillusion
Achieving what was prophesied
Brought to life by horrors untold
Unholy covenant etched in flesh
Marching blindly to their death
Engulfed by your delusions
This path will be your disillusion
Engulfed by your delusions
This path will be your disillusion
How far will you go
To fulfill your destiny
How many shall succumb
Paving the path
The path to eternity

Corpse

Beneath the hanging tree
Left to perish in solitude
His mother lynched and torn
Dangles in the breeze's gentle caress
Presumed a corpse
Now keening beneath ebony heavens
Offered solace
Amid foreboding omens
Claimed by the plague
Clutching his hand
Calling his name
The blame rests upon the infant
Orphaned anew
You must carry your weight
You either fight or die
Under your newfound leader
Yet another blade for the fray
With the first spill of blood
Bought and despoiled
Shattered and defiled
His retribution looms near
Abuse and degradation
Years steeped in grim torment
Cold nights and grim despair
Gripping tightly to end his life
An eve of revelation
Confronting the grim reality
Taking vengeance upon his assailant
Slayer of the father
Branded a patricide
Pursued by his companions
Plunging into the abyss
Overwhelmed and fractured
The boy reveals at last
The beast lurking within
From battle to battle
Existence defined by the blade
Taking his first trophy
For seven pieces of gold
The behemoth on his knees
After rending his flesh
He deals the final blow
To hasten his demise
Beneath blue skies
The White Falcon claims his prey
Rendered powerless and bound
Dragged away into the unknown
Defiant by nature
Bound solely to the path of conflict
He challenges the White Falcon
Only to find himself ensnared under his wing
Beneath the hanging tree
Left to perish in solitude
His mother lynched and torn
Dangles in the breeze's gentle caress
Presumed a corpse
Now keening beneath ebony heavens
Offered solace
Amid foreboding omens
Only to find himself ensnared under his wing
Under his wing
Presumed a corpse
Presumed a corpse
Under his wing
Under his wing
