I move as mist across shadows

Blood upon skin,

Ice upon earth,

Within darkness I am binding

life and death.

Life:

Of a fallen kingdom;

Betrayed by the subhuman,

Obsessed with divine greed.

Betrayed by the worshipper

of a vanished altar.

Death:

Of a land once rich with beauty,

Absorbed by the ice.

Perishing, the noble northern kind.

Massacred by nature

and an ignorance of prophecy.

Eldritch kingdom, Mhu Thulan

Forsaken capital, Commoriom

King Haalor mummified in ice

Atavistic grip of frozen night

Runes created before man

cannot deter the icy waste;

for it's animism came to be

before the dawn of earthly time.
