Lingerer 06:34
Silently, dreams fade away The pale weeper drifts through the dust All those years spent in shadows Lurking and seeking through cobwebbed halls In the height of the night Sheltered in candlelit rooms No memory of the past, only to seek What the shadows hide The hourglass lies in wait As the dawn turns to eve through the glass Lingering, through rotten bookshelves Whilst trodding internally among the stars The flying reaper speaks And the weeper lends its ear "We keep these halls hollow That our minds may never fill" In the height of the night Sheltered in candlelit rooms No memory of the past, only to seek What the shadows hide

Five fires set ablaze And the sixth lies dormant The cultivater raises his arms And then calls out into the sky Eight huntsmen gather in awe And the ninth sits upon the throne Heads adorned with the skin of wolves And the watcher calls out the names Seven horses laid upon cold stone And the eighth bears a rider One by one the flesh is scorched And the crows assemble in flocks The huntsmen set forth The man lays down to die Only a beast is left Through darkening woodlands And the deepest marsh Invigorates the ever-growing seed From the shivering northern wastes Far from where the light could touch Sits the key to the heart of the wild And the burning wave of strength Set behind the hunstman's throne Towering over lesser beings Out of sight from weaker souls And awaiting to be grasped The cultivater sets the rite Distributing consumables from the fauna Fungal curiosities To open the mind Spirit of the woodland reunites Reminiscing Of the past life The life of maggots and lies Shedding old skin from the lesser self Ascending from far below

Pathseeker 07:06
I walked through the wooden door Leaving thick black footprints behind Subtle drops upon my coat But I was not to stay long I grabbed provisions And a stale old map Slung the rifle around my chest And set back into the cold Stumbling over thick roots As the sky grows black as the void The howling winds meet the cries of wolves As the lantern reveals the path Black creatures of the tundra linger Their curious eyes shine through the mist And the shivering grasp of the storm Bleeds deeper into the flesh Where have I gone now? How much further left? Dazed and anxious I sat by a fence Set my rifle down by my side When a figure on horeseback arrived And he spoke to me "Old wanderer, stranger to me. You sit here empty, in stomach and in soul. Yet many steps lay ahead, to find what it is you seek. Yet only time will tell, if you have the strength." I grabbed my rifle Adjusted my coat Gazed forward And walked
