lyrics

SCRIPTURE:
“The losses we have inflicted upon them are folly and should have broken them weeks ago. Yet still our foe hurls themselves against our walls. It is not death that they fear, but to be so broken that they can no longer fight for their revered god of death. And worry besets me that their deluded piety yet could overcome us, for the Third Captain has signaled that the foundations are badly weakened...”
(Qa’ar Izum II, The Scrolls of the Second Phase - as translated by Dr Karl von Mecklenburg)

SERMON:
If every scar tells a story, then my body is a bard
- So gaze not upon my broken form
With the pitied horror for the Failed,
But listen with your eyes
To the tales that it tells
Of the violence of the Ceaseless War.

Here, in the deformity of my knee
Is the Second Siege of Ishpan -
When the sky screamed black
With the sharp feathers of death
And bronze fought bone to shattering.

Here, in the scarred pit of my arm
Is the ambush on the Pla-nanth Dun -
When the Brothers of the Snake
Hissed like lava in the rain
And metal bit muscle to red shredding.

Here, in the dead socket of my eye
Is the Campaign of the Chosen -
When the sails and timber burned
With the fearsome heat of oil
And wood pierced flesh with exploding.

I am a ruin
But not Failed yet
I am broken, but I
I am not yet dead….

So, against the walls I’ll go
(Into that biting horror)
Until my vigour is spent, and I
Can move no more.
