Trench Of Nalu Lyrics

Here, in the final abyss

Beneath my wicked wind

I'm so much stronger

Than when last I was here

I have returned to seek

A darker shard within

I have no equal, so

I have no fear

And the rupture, it beckons

This garden of the gods

And the rupture, it beckons

How darkness calls!

Bleak architecture

Woven in the walls

Never seen it before

But I've seen it before

U A UN E AA ORA ORA

You were chained here

Your seed was sown before the shards were thrown

Profane ones,

Your work is at last propagated,

Rejuvenated by Umbra's song

So leaving the shallow,

I sweep through a wreathe of nameless mammals

Into Python

The second chamber of the pit

What awaits me there

Fangs descend down on me

I pull them out because I know

I won't bleed

I'll tear the demon's

Flesh with the blade

Bring death like a fire

The fell shriek of the spawn is my choir

Though I've gotten old, I feel lighter

Their blood-stains make Lustre brighter

SZER A UREWA EWE A AREYA

SEN UREWA U

In the next chamber

I catch sight of

A mural depiction

The Shield and the Chimera

Both unconventional

Both may yet make their appearance

What will I find here?

What kind of shield and

Will it help me, do I need it?

What dwells down here

What kind of demon is

This abyssal incarnation

It waits in the dark and

It begs for my fire

A howl deep in this trench messiah

Once the shield portrayed is acquired

I'll seek the child (seahorse, sealion)

Though I've gotten old, I feel lighter

Their blood-stains make Lustre brighter!

Still, on they come

On they come

I'm stepping stones

Treading relics now recalled

A shame to stain the lost

Expressions of the cult

Nalu, I can hear you

In the art and in the walls

Nalu, I have found you

Who'd have known you were so close

Though I learned your name

I admit I hardly know you at all

On I tread, along your riverbeds

Light my way, silver vein!

Hidden, crawling,

Breathing, defacing

Blast unleashed, and walls unmade

Shield in sight, and not much time!

Jump the rubble, snatch my prize

Dodge the rain of

Stone coming down

All coming down!

I hit the dead end

But for two small tunnels

It's this or I'll be smothered

Two stones,

Tossed in right and left

I focus my Azdin

Listen for their landings

One stone sizzles into magma

So deep within the walls

The left one seems to land

But how can I be sure?

My time - it ebbs away

To the beat of the barrage

Nought else to do but take one breath, and shut my eyes,

And… jump!

This slope, it narrows as it goes

And so, I let the shield go

I have to lose my form

and with it, I spend too much power

I turn to liquid, funnel down

Drip down, and reform

Deep in Nalu's womb

Blue encrusts these walls

Like dead coral

Like a corpse

Yonder, Umbra calls

Past the coral maw

Stripped of all but sword

From the void above, my foe at last comes forth

Babe of the trench, you cannot know what made you

Slither, seahorse snout, your flattened wings, they betray you

My sense obscured

I draw my sword

Forget that I am not immortal

Your eyes of black

Your coral blasts

Your godform is born so primal

What's your weakness?

Encrusted by the after-strikes

You slowly ensured your demise

So blade in hand, I take my chance

And slit you from spine to the snout

And though I

Slay you, I find myself so spent

I might as well have slain myself

Still I have one more light to snuff

Shining just ahead,

Though I've not the strength to reach it

Set behind a glassy veil

With I, too weak to sink the sword, to leech it

I throw myself against the final seal

My shattered body now a wreck

I pass the verge

With one last lunge

I still have one more siphon left in me!

We scream, as it drinks!

The trench, in death, is now alive!

I stumble back

Buckle to my knees

and shut my eyes and wait to die

Inside of me, I feel it snap inside of me

My enchantments, and my double

All relinquished from me

So Majgyn, he'd kill me anyway

So fitting that the many-legged creatures swarm all over me

Help me decompose, if that's what's best for me

Yet through the myriad feet, I sense lavender now falling down on me

Don't save me now, I'm begging you please

You fool, just take the blade, abandon me
