lyrics

And so, the human race retreated beneath the earth
Under cover of twilit sky, the servants of Amethyst saw the walls of ice advance,
Unstoppable.

A night, a winter, unending, with no hope of dawn. The Sun silenced and bound, like his eldest sibling before him.

And so mankind suffered, and lingered, with citadels of ice above, and the sepulchre of the Mask beneath.

Watching.

Waiting.

Waiting for one who, by birthright, could don the Mask and, with its power, bring dawn forth.
Progeny of the second divine to be usurped.

The one who could lead mankind back to the surface, and destroy those who had taken it from them.

The flaming arms. The burning sword.

Victoria Solis.

The Daughter of the Sun.

Have no fear
Take up arms
The Demigoddess
Will lead the charge

Sword of flame
Evil's bane
The wicked cannot
Speak her name

We'll rise up
Retake our home
Ice and soulless
Thralls dethroned

From earth which lies
'Neath twilit rime
She will bring dawn
For Mankind!

Victoria Solis!
Daughter of the Sun!
Divinity shining
Like the coming dawn!

Beings infernal,
Monuments of ice,
Will be forever banished!
Dawn and paradise!

Blessed He With Boils (2012)
by Xanthochroid

An incredible album, especially for a first-time release. The clean vocals are majestic, the blackened vocals scream and shriek for revenge, and combination fuels a compelling story. Alturúk

Khaooohs And Kon-Fus-Ion
by Pan.Thy.Monium

Dan Swano has written too many good albums to list. The atmospheres he creates are always thick and unusual, with a sense of high fantasy that absorbs the listener and doesn't let them escape. Alturúk
