about

Having learned the price of power, The Marauder chooses his destiny.

lyrics

THE MARAUDER:

Time slows
And thoughts
Meld into one

In the deepest recesses of his mind,
I see something I cannot believe.

I can recall a time, when life was not unkind.
But nothing I know can compare to this.


Can this be true? This image, this vision,
From the mind of The Beast?
Can this be a memory of the world as it once was?

Unspoilt and untouched by my wicked art,
The shade of trees, the sound of rain.
Beautiful to behold:
A world where thirst does not exist.

Whether it is true or not, that this deadly world
Is the twisted mutation of something divine,
I would gladly give all I have
To see this world realized.

Only one chance to make an escape,
His mind is open and exposed
An attack would be suicidal, but it would be a noble death,
Retribution, however weak.

Horrible strike to His psyche!
My will manifest into an obsidian edge!
Instantly expelled from his mind, and speak forbidden words one last time,
To aid me in my flight!

Fly

THE SCOURGE:

NEVER SLEEP! I will find you!
And punish you for your insolence!
I offered you power, and a chance to live forever.
Instead you have chosen to die in agony.

THE MARAUDER:

I will not forget what I have seen.
Nor regret this fateful day.
For I have discovered a dream worth dying for!
And though I'm doomed to wander the desert,
I will see this world restored.
