The Dark Liege Of Chaos Is Unleashed Lyrics

The Dark Liege Of Chaos Is Unleashed
At The Ensorcelled Shrine Of
A'Zura-Kai
(The Splendour Of A Thousand Swords Gleaming
Beneath The
Blazon Of The Hyperborean Empire Part II)

ALTARUS:
You must learn to
control your spirit-form, Xerxes...
for by mastering the art of traversing
the mists
you may effortlessly travel to many places, and many
times.
Countless secrets will be unlocked for you,
and great
enlightenment shall be yours.

XERXES:
Yes, master... and yet, there
is one realm which intrigues me
above all others, one era which occupies my
thoughts unceasingly...
What of the clash between the Royal Army of
Hyperborea
and the Wraiths of the Chaos-Liege?

ALTARUS:
Ah, yes...
command the mists, Xerxes...
gaze into their limitless depths... compel them
to show you
that martial vista which you so fervently
seek.

XERXES:
Yes... I see the massing forces, the battle is
imminent!
How splendid the Imperial Army looks as it fronts the
foe...
into the fray they ride!

CHAPTER 1: THE BLOODYING OF THE
KING
(THE ARMIES OF THE HYPERBOREAN EMPIRE
STEADFASTLY ENGAGE THE HORDE
OF WRAITHS)

THE KING:
Imperial Cavalry... advance! Ride Them Down! In
to the fray!
Demonstrate unforgettably the art of Hyperborean
warcraft!
Spearmen, form into Omega Phalanx.
Archers, notch arrows,
prepare to loose.
Warriors, stand ready... Sound the
clarion!

Hearken, sons of the glorious Empire...
Here we stand upon
the Field of Blood...
Though this day we may die,
Our legend shall live
forever.

ALTARUS:
???

THE ARCH-WRAITH:
Minions of Chaos,
rend their flesh,
crush their bones, devour their souls!

CHAPTER 2:
HAVOC AT THE SHRINE OF A'ZURA-KAI

THE KING:
Onwards with our
spear-heads gleaming,
Meet them with cold steel a'cleaving,
Fall only
when our hearts cease beating,
Men of
Hyperborea.

ALTARUS:
???

THE KING:
By the darkling powers
of the Shadow-Sword,
I call forth the fury of the storm to rend the massed
legions of Chaos!

ALTARUS:
And at the sound of his baleful Words of
Power,
the sky split wide in fury, and searing tendrils of
ruinous
lightning lanced inexorably forth from the heavens to rake
and
reave the massed hordes of Chaos...

XERXES:
The fearful spells he had
learned from the Mountain...
did their casting win the battle for the King's
legions?

ALTARUS:
The fiends were dealt a staggering blow by the
sorcerous incantations,
the power of the spells inexplicably magnified by
the enchantments
of the Crystal. The Wraiths were routed soundly by the
elder magics,
fleeing anathemas and maledictions against the King,
and
the winged horrors fell seared and burning from the enraged sky.
But the
twisted machinations of insidious Chaos had prepared
for the King one final
blow in this dread confrontation...
aye, the Chaos-Lie

CHAPTER 3: THE
AWAKENING OF CHAOS

LORD ANGSAAR:
Fly, my winged sentinel of the
night,
Deliver unto me the Ninth Crystal of Power,
That I may at last be
free once more...

Come then, mortal!
Test that cursed blade of black
steel against me if you dare!
O' great king, your pitiful army shall be
swept away before my wrath!
'Ere the dawn, ten thousand shall
die!

THE KING:
For the eternal glory of
Hyperborea!

ALTARUS:
???

XERXES:
But what did Angsaar want
of the Crystal?
I know he battled his immortal nemesis over possession
of
the mystic gems many aeons ago...
but what use would just one of the jewels
be to him?

ALTARUS:
???

XERXES:
Then the battle, the defeat
of the wraiths,
all that had been merely a ruse...
a scheme implemented by
the Chaos-Liege merely to realize
his ultimate ambition of the sundering of
the mystic shackles?

XERXES:
Yes, the only chance... the last hope
for victory...

ALTARUS:
???

XERXES:
What was that deed?
What could stop the Chaos-Liege?
I must know the outcome of this
confrontation!

ALTARUS:
The vista begins to darken...
the mists
once again weave their spell to withold their timelost secrets.
Practice
your art, Xerxes...
hone your skills, and the final outcome of this epic
tale
shall soon be made known to you...
