...and then the wanderer spoke.

A door was made in search of everlasting peace
But all they found was a world full of Cockatrice
Try as they might, couldn't make a door to heaven
Wizards of the order, now two once eleven
They went on a journey after creating the torch
Blind by their creation, they knew some things were worse
They knew the creatures power stemmed from sight
What could a monster hunt if it were blind?
Now Aarik and Lance hang with neanderthals
Teaching them things like cooking and building walls
They knew not yet the queen of the cockatrice.
Constance of Gemlor, was now a solitary beast
Spurred by the death of nearly of mankind
Aarik continued searching for the afterlife
He found magic he thought would link him to God
A link to Constance was not what he sought
Then Aarik wanted to bring the world to an end
If Constance were freed, perhaps this would happen

Surely God would show himself then...
After hearing his words, Matricia knew the wanderers name
Before he could cast a spell, she cut him down with her blade
(Now Aarik and Lance hang with neanderthals
Teaching them things like cooking and building walls)

So few now stand with me
adrift is the trust of some, the souls of most
I feel I've lost everything
I've no more use for this torch
Madricia,
I've unleashed a devil
A devil I cannot chase
It'd be the end of me
should we come face-to-face
Now, back here in Evely
All who were once close to me
Now question my sanity
Except the lovely
Madricia
I've unleashed a devil
A devil I cannot chase
It'd be the end of me
Should we come face to face
I've unleashed a devil....

Do you deserve to die, Markus our king?
Was their lives worth what you bring?
You're unfit to roam these castle halls
Unfit to live within these walls
Markus time to try to get back down to earth
Sail on, Monster, back to earth
Take her, she's willing, for what it's worth
compensation for your decent years
Markus time to try to get back down to earth
You'll quickly die on the journey
without anything to eat or drink
You should have never come back
Take with you what's in your bag
Markus time to try to get back down to earth

Did we survive the journey
Or is this our souls dreaming?

What a wonderful day out here in the sun
In our new concrete home
There's no place I'd rather be
Than here with you down by the sea
On the outskirts of Gillian
A kingdom where so few have been
Oh my sweet, sweet Stevia
It's like it's just you and me
Come on come on come on
Let's see the stars
I just want to hold you in my arms
Come on come on come on
Swordsmith of my dreams
Let's picnic down by the stream
The swords you make with your bare hands
The sharpest steal in all the land
but I know, knowing you like I do
They're not the most impressive thing about you
Come on come on come on
Lay down with me
No treasure can compare in Evely
To this life down by the sea
There it's like it's just you and me.
Come on

All our friends are dead
I'm sorry, Gillian
I did this Now I witness
A world done in by constance
I know now that I can't live in a world crumbled
by my own actions.
Should it take one thousand years,
I'll live to see this deed undone
And I hate to speak these words,
But was Aarik was right?
Constance means the world's end
Is Constance the wrath of God's might?
No, I did this. we've set sail
In Evely we'll meet Constance
Dread thickens in me as we near
As her voice grows louder in my ear.

Why'd you look?
You knew what the devil could do
Though blind, should I have known?
Could I have stopped you?
What are we to do now?
What will become
Of my love?
Madricia
My love
You put my loyalty to the test
Madricia
My love
Yes, I'll grant your last request
Madricia
My love
Our life had just begun
Madricia
My love
May your light brighten the sun

No one else knows of your wonder.
And soon I will surely die.
So though I can't see the words
I'll write till the devil claims my life

No malice beared
For I'm absent of intent.
A craving has encompassed my mind
No action comes with thought.
I feel the dark torch drawing nearer.
I sensed it in Gillian, but I feel it now.
I close my eyes to it
A visceral response.
I'm outside myself
While the Dark Torch's warmth turns torrid
I feel a blade puncture as no blade should
It releases me from id
I reward my killer with a glance
but as I feel myself fade
I'm not relieved and I'm not afraid.
I just am.
I am.
I.

Rest, dear friend. You will be missed.
Be with your love, Markus
Of evely. Our king.
May you at last find your peace.
