about

In this world, all of life is a struggle. The Marauder can twist the energies of what little plant life remains towards his own dark aims.

lyrics

THE MARAUDER:

I have mastered the art forbidden and despised.
Drain the life around me, and feel the power rise!
All that is lush, and green is mine.
To do with what I will, to murder! to disguise!

Strength of steel, nor will of mind,
Can command the energies of what was once alive

Reduce to ash
The spell is cast.
Create the flame
Kill again!

Life is cheap, destroy the weak,
Feel the magic flow!

SPIRITS OF THE LAND:

Hear their spirits, crying out in pain. A world robbed of life, a sky without rain.

THE MARAUDER:

I'll gladly consume these archaic spirits, to help fuel my arcane might!
Only through conquest and destruction to kingdoms spread, do flames ignite.
To the victor go the spoils, only the strongest can survive, and though this world is slowly dying, I will still be here, alive!

SPIRITS OF THE LAND:

Defile...deify. Desecrator, you will die.

THE MARAUDER:

Defile!
Deify!
Bow before me, or you will die!

As I descend into this dark ruin 'neath the sands
I feel the icy tendrils of another mind touching mine.
Ancient and unspeakable, it fills my heart with fear

THE SCOURGE:

Mortal! Let me into your mind, I shall take what you hold dear!
