The Serpent's Stone

Towers rise from crystalline frost
 Spires crown the stronghold
 Archaic power within
 Castle gates guarded by wyvern forms
 Stone creatures, a specter calling
 Ancient walls, mystic and cold
 This task, the way now shrouded
 An evil presence
 Through abandoned courtyards
 Looming death
 In the highest tower, an emerald glare
 Atop a column of marble
 The Serpent's Stone
 "This world is not as you see
 Thine mortal paradigm deceased
 Fall into the tunnel of eternity"
 Black magick reckoning
 On contact the power revealed
 Verdant bolts pierce sanity and steel
 Antecedent, imminent
 Aeons pass, one thousand stars burn and collapse
 So the cosmos unfold
 Their secrets and knowledge untold
 As space-time unlocks in my soul
 I channel the Stone
 One with the earth and the stars
 My mind soars and travels afar
 And so now I see it all clear
 I have been betrayed
 Awakened, Self-disintegration
 Inward, into nothingness
 Dimensions unveiled
 Outward, infinite passage through time
 An answer most foul
 The vile conjuror, a foe
 Betrayal - the truth
 The voice within the Serpent's Stone
 Poisonous, Treachory, Traitorous, Deceived
 Treaties now made with a long lost dynasty
 Generations past, a forgotten scourge
 The choice is nigh, a sulfurous pact with The Night
 The great bane of Man
 An Ancient Power
 The Serpent Emperors of old
 Dark legends of antiquity
 The Dragon Kings shall rise once more
