Ripping the sky through cloud and smoke
A thunderous crack explodes
Casting a fiery light onto the ground below
Biting cold winds scatter dust throughout the lands
In earthen womb it sleeps a being old as centuries

A time ago when men were kings
And their sculpted shrines attested deeds
Of a fervid race of purest breed
But from a distant tomb emerges demon wings

From the burning pits--without relent
With blazing eyes--on vengeance bent
A defense is formed and as the realms unite
Their gaze is turned toward mountains high

A black shroud ascends and swallows the sun
Their sight is blinded; their time has come
The darkened mass spreads
The war has begun

Unseen, yet terrifying
The clans are laid to waste as the lands ignite
In roaring flame
And the blood now drains beneath the ashen grave
