Atlantis Ascendant Lyrics

Atlantis Ascendant lyrics

[The Chronicler of Antediluvia:]

Long ago, before the Third Great
Cataclysm reshaped the face of creation,

one nation rose above all others
in the antediluvian world... Atlantis.



[The Atlantean Quorum:]

Hear the call Atlanteans, proud we stand forever,

Mightiest of
warriors, we sail across the sea.

Conquering the ancient world, a legacy
eternal,

Raise the arcane sigil high, steel and sorcery!

Blessed
with immortality, dreaming spires of majesty, glory crowns our destiny!



[The Host of Z'xulth:]

Your realm is lost... it shall be
devoured by the sea!



[The Chronicler of Antediluvia:]

And so
it was written in the stars, astride the world would stand the children

of
Atlantis!



And yet disturbingly, another voice, a wholly darker and
more malevolent

presence, can be perceived lurking within the ancient
body of the inscriptions,

an ominous tone which prophesizes doom and
ruination for the Atlantean realm,

speaking of a disastrous cataclysm
foretold in the stars when the sun would

burn black and the agents of
some unfathomable evil would besiege Atlantis,

ultimately compelling the
seas to rise and devour the continent, leaving no

trace of the glory
which once was. These passages seem to have been

deliberately obscured,
and this fact combined with the passage of countless

aeons and the
embrace of the eternally shifting sands lamentably prevents me

from
translating the inscriptions on the fragment any further.
