"Beyond and below terrible Albrunn, lies the Waste of En-Faln. Beware those who dwell and pray in that haunted mount, for their maddened priest will seek the powers of those banished under the cursed plain, and at the cost of mankind, they will bring up those Three that cannot be willed by ways of man or sorcery. Only the Lost Chants of Maelbin, should they be found, may put them back."
-The Third Keeper of Aelbrond

The New Faith
02:57
|
|

They have brought from the desert,
The word of God and the Cross
A selfish Lord and demander of faith
To one, else I will be lost
They have rebuilt our temple,
They have sundered the keep of my line!
By the Gods, I'll have revenge,
And the burden will not be mine!
Great Gods of Sun and Thunder,
Of Steel and War,
My axe will drink the blood of
Cross-bearing hoardes
Return and cast them back to
Their southern shores!
The Old Ones sit in glory,
They await me in their Hall!
I will mock the one, Satan,
The other half of their curse!
My sword will match any demon,
My deeds will be sung after I'm gone
I can't fear this Evil One,
A meager God of the fools and unsaved
They would lie in the fire
But Hell is no place meant for the brave

The Summoner's Pit
07:22
|
|
||
Down from the North they bring word
The mad priest is calling them
He's found the Door, in haunted lands where no one dares
The Elder Race before man, had sealed The Three beneath En Faln
The frozen plain beyond the peaks of shunned Albrunn
They are rising from The Pit! The priest summoned Them!
He summoned that which can't be fought,
The Wyrm of Fire and the Wyrm of Frost,
And the Formless One!
My steel will keep me, my chants will shield me through,
The Guarding Flame, and the Demon Priest that calls Them forth
The mountain halls are empty, the plain rises before me
There, stands the fool who conjures those who serve no one
They are rising from The Pit! The priest summoned Them!
He summoned that which can't be fought,
The Wyrm of Fire and the Wyrm of Frost,
And the Formless One!
He may be ancient, as I am old,
But what he's brought forth he can't hold
They will feast long, and raze the Earth, if the spell falls I will fall too
So, begin the song, the bardic chant
And drive these Gods back to the chasm
A flash of light, and They appear
A weaker man would die in true fear!
From Hell they came forth, and beneath En Faln they will return!

A Slave to the Night
03:14
|
|

The moon lights my errand, I feel the calling in its glow
I try, but never can I resist, I will follow
My sins are hidden from light of day and morning bright
The stars see my evil, all that the Sun will never know
And I, I have become a vassal of Dark and Lust
The spell of night has fallen and I must hunt,
For willing flesh and the bliss of a hazy mind
She will call and to Her I belong
The dark gloom, my haven, to you I'm bound and I am lone
Bring vice and pleasure when I see her then I will know, that
My sins are hidden from light of day and morning light
The stars see my evil, I am a slave unto the night!
I have become a vassal of Dark and Lust
The spell of night has fallen and I must hunt,
For willing flesh and the bliss of a hazy mind
She will call and to Her I belong
Ever brighter does the Moon and Her stars shine!
The naked flesh before me wants only to be mine!
And I have found the ones to serve my will tonight
Oh night, you bring such gifts! I'm yours if they are mine

Bloodstone Ring
04:48
|
|
||
For aeons laid under earth and rock
The relic waits in forgotten lore
He who wields it becomes one with the stone
Come from the stars on another's form
Unholy glow, the guarded city of woe
The awful light from an ancient hall
And so it falls to a thief with a past
Longer than Man would dare recall
The Bloodstone Ring will find its hand!
All the lands would bow before the man turned god
The power of the ages to command
A thrall to the gem, it will seek dominion once again!
Two armies massed before the wasteland of rot
To fight the beasts and the risen dead
And the Daughters kill so that their pleas to the Gods
Might grant reprieve from that which they dread
The Demon Moon can only stall the defeat
The witch's tide would sweep the dome
But the book reveals the only way to avail
Is to kill the one that bears the Stone
