lyrics

(abstract)
Sarpedon relents,

“Spellbound by the darkness of the approaching Blemmeys horde, I find myself frozen,Frozen in the face of Semjaza.”

High above, locked in an aerial duel, were Sariel and Theseus. Their forms danced amidst the storm clouds, lightning illuminating their fierce exchanges. Each move was countered, each strike parried, as the two combatants seemed evenly matched, a testament to the Nephilim elder's prowess. Sariel escaped death’s clutches by a razor’s edge, using dark magic and disappeared, abandoning his army to the battlefield.

Amid the fury, Magnus & Sarpedon, two strangers, found themselves faced against Semjaza and Vapula. Their onslaught fierce; but, evenly matched, until Jorodora, once named among the Titans, emerged to flank Sarpedon & Magnus, forming an unbreakable shield against the pressing tide. Then came Otis & Enchidna with another wave of soldiers.

The Blemmyes horde, headless creatures with eyes That shone, and fangs that frothed with hunger for Nephilim meat, they would not relent; Magnus’ peril persists,

“Failing Theseus, for the horde is in the thousands, Arrows rain from the green dragons in thine arm, And before I hit ground, for the horde is in the thousands; The Wytch unsheathes her razors From thine skin to swipe a fatal slice, But, I close thine eyes in awaiting certain death!”

But, instead a Roman sword releases her death grip, Thus thrust into the Axe of Otis, The dragoness’ lacerated chest spurts blood; The Blemmeys horde let her feast on their rotten flesh, Her wounded body regenerates; Theseus, in the space Between seconds, sacrificed His freedom for the rescue of Magnus. Dragged to the center of the horde, Theseus Smiles upon Magnus, who was safely snatched Up by Theseus’s flying steed, upon the wings of the wind, in the merits of timelessness.
