The Didact's Will |
I came here unaware of the screams of the effigy, to seek out the higher entity, |
so righteously traitorous |
The consequence macabre seals the essence; |
expiration before the monument |
crawling on hands and knees |
Expulsions through the flesh as all their bones tilt their axis |
Blood draining from the body, evaporation through pores |
Their king, a smoldering meat carcass devoid of purity |
The buffet of a thousand tears to be served about the land, the pillaging of |
masses splits this earth to its core |
The gaping hole is fed with bodies, hell cries out for more |
No better nor worse than the Master Builder |
Bound in stasis I would not be if not for his deceitful hegemony |
Sucked into captivity |
By the sentient tower of rotting corpses, I stand aware but paralyzed by fear |
The sentient tower of rotting corpses, insight to the way we die |
I awake in the burn, an unknown system completely overthrown |
Unable to cry for help, but mysteriously accompanied by allies in symmetrical |
forms |
We are alone |
Betrayed by the Master Builder, Ecumene’s self-appointed leader |
Replaced by my own imprinted clone |
Yes, we are alone |
That bastard betrayer! |
I shall exact my revenge and tell him of his wife and children |
Bloody knowledge gained in the Primordial captivity |
The galaxy will call to my imprint in a desperate plea |
He gathers sources and an army to follow behind the other me so every last |
Promethean soul shall be absorbed to the digital realm |
Through the guidance and the light of the Composer, I shall defeat the Flood |
The effort is not enough |
Resistance against infection, but the effort is not enough |
Perhaps if the numbers were more in my favor? |
Or will this prove to be another of my failures? |
The answer lies in the enemy of my past |
My sentence calls for annihilation, but once had been prohibited |
No restraints, no leash, no ball and chain |
It’s time to reclaim my place |
It’s time to reclaim my name |
It’s time to reclaim my place |
In the name of the Mantle, I stand before you on my mighty pedestal to bring |
acceptance of your fate to your minds |
Encryption of your race shall be done in time |
Thus I have chosen to commit my armory to what it is for all intents and |
purposes |
The proverbial irresistible force |
All that I have is now yours to do with as you please |
Since my awakening from the Cryptum I’ve partially ignored the humans as a race, |
a monumental threat not only to us, but themselves |
His slaves crawl on all fours as he rings the dinner bell |
I feel the outward pull of my membranes as they push to shatter my cells |
The buffet of a thousand tears to be served about the land, the pillaging of |
masses splits this earth to its core |
The gaping hole is fed with bodies, hell cries out for more |
I am the Didact, leader of the Forerunner’s Ecumene warriors, and this is my |
will |
Hell cries out for me |
