Bal-Sagoth - The Splendour Of A Thousand Swords Gleam слова песни

The Splendour Of A Thousand Swords Gleaming Beneath The Blazon Of The Hyperborean Empire...[ALTARUS:] Gaze deep into the mists with your spirit-eyes, Xerxes... look far,and tell me what you see.[XERXES:] I see a land far to the north... a vast empire of dark endless moorsand snow-crowned mountains... a land of brooding citadels and warrior-kingswho hail to grim gods.[ALTARUS:] Look well, Xerxes, for enlightenment hides within the fog-swathedvales of Hyperborea...[The King`s Dream:]By the onyx sceptre of my forefathers, the air is churning with auguriesof dethronement... Impending dread thus prophesized! In a dream I was baderide the argent-eyed unicorn to the Ring of Stones... There a torrent ofviscid slime assailed me, as pipes and horns sang the clarion of mydissolution... And the usurpation of my ancient azure throne. Assassins stalkthe nighted halls of my palace... poisoned blades and chalices surround me.I thirsted for a balm, but my thirst was slaked by an envenomed draught. Myswordarm shackled by tendrils of sloth... enthralled by the chasmed gloom...Borne upon wings of labyrinthine dread... I awaken! I shall seek the counselof the sorcerer, keeper of the ancient scrolls of wisdom, and the Crystals ofPower...[The Words of the Sorcerer:]My liege, great and regal king... the mists disclose their secrets... youare destined to wield a great dark power. Drink deep of the potions of theapothecary, for upon thee now I bestow a shard of the mystic Crystal ofMera... sacred artefact of the At lantean mages, won in battle by our legions.My liege, the Crystal of Mera shall unveil the truth lurking hidden in thymost fever-haunted dreams...[The Voice of the Harbinger:]The land awash with spilled blood, and viscera torn forth from thesundered dead... Gorge the earth with flesh darkened with the claw and fang ofwar... rent open the ravenous maws of worms...[The King:]The Crystal illumines dark secrets, the truth is known... a dire andancient threat is ranged against me. Hearken, the clarion is upon the winds,now the call to arms is upon us all, Grim warriors, take up thy spears andhone thy gleaming swords. Archers, string thy bows, brave knights, saddle thesteeds of war, The glory of battle is nigh at last, our banner shall fly thisday in victory!My warriors, a legacy shall this day be wrought by our blades, decreed bythe gods, Blessed by the blood of vanquished foes. Our destiny beckons...[Lord Angsaar, Dark Liege of Chaos:]Come, great king of Hyperboria, march against me with your splendidlegions and shimmering swords. I, the Bane of the Atlantean Kings, the Scourgeof Lemuria, Archfoe of the Immortals of Ultima Thule, shall Crush you! I shallvisit a thousand plagues upo n your realm, and wreak untold havoc and bloodycarnage until I have your throne... and your soul![ALTARUS:] And thus, flanked by the splendour of azure banners, a vast armymarched forth from the great walls of the Imperial City of Hyperborea, and atthe forefront of the mighty legions, astride an ebon war-stallion, rode theking, sunlight glinting up on his splendid armour... compelled by dreams, andguided by the Crystal of Mera...[XERXES:] Where? Where did the king`s path take him?[ALTARUS:] The king was compelled to lead his forces to the shadow-hauntedMountains of the Dead, a grim and brooding place steeped in dark and ancientlegendry. Alone he rode into the gaping maw of a huge cave hewn into the sideof the tallest mountain co untless ages past by unknown hands. For three fulldays and nights he did not emerge from the cave... until, at last, he rodeforth from the eldritch mountain once more, a terrible knowledge shadowed inhis icy eyes, and bearing in his gauntleted fist a huge black sword, amagnificent ebon blade which no human blacksmith ever forged. Fearsomesorcerous power crackled within the yard of black steel, dancing upon itssearingly honed, glyph-scored blade... and its bejewelled, dragon-carved hiltdid whisper arcane secrets to the king in a strange, elder tongue.[XERXES:] But master, what powers did this blade possess? What secrets didit hold?[ALTARUS:] Many centuries ago, before even were waged the Great Warsbetween the ancient kingdoms of Atlantis and Hyperborea, Lord Angsaar did risefrom his charnel-tomb and do battle with a powerful immortal warrior-shamanover the possession of the elder Crystals of Mera, mystic gems of unparalleledmagical potency. Angsaar, his power swelled by forces from the vast OuterDarkness, did smite his foe to the brink of destruction... but, with hisfading sorceries, the immortal mystically transferred his li fe-essence intohis great black sword, and scattered the magic crystals across the galaxy,leaving Angsaar with a hollow victory and forcing him to return once more tohis dark Chamber of Slumber. The sword was lost for centuries, as were thecrystals, u ntil the one gem to remain on this world was discovered deepbeneath the northern seas by an ancient Atlantean wizard. And the sword...legends spoke of how its final resting place would be made known by thesorceries of the last crystal only when the bl ade`s power would once again neneeded to battle the Chaos-liege. This was the immortal`s final, most powerfulspell... upon the reawakening of Angsaar, the sorcerous energies and undyinglifeforce encased within the blade would be transferred to its wie lder...aye, the one who discovered the Shadow-Sword would be imbued with the power ofthe immortal, and by the art of elder spellcraft, he would do battle with hisancient nemesis once more...[XERXES:] Then there looms such a cataclysmic battle![ALTARUS:] And so, from his Black Citadel, the Chaos-liege did send forthhis Horde of Wraiths to engage the army of the king...[THE KING:]Behold, a legion of undead fiends meets us upon the field of war. Faceme, Scourge of Lemuria, I wield thy bane, the Shadow-Sword... (and darksomesorceries now empower me with thunderous might!) Hearken, the clarion is uponthe winds, now the call to arms is upon us all, The glory of battle is nigh atlast, into the fray we ride![XERXES:] The outcome, master... who left the field victorious? Did theking prevail?[ALTARUS:] The mists begin to disperse... for now, the images fade. Thattale shall have to wait `til another day...
