Hammers, chisels, forges, and coal lay about
Workshops that once use to spring life
Are sullen their masters have disappeared
The earth was dyed red
From the moon high above
Blood and carnage soaked the purity
Of what once used to be holy and pure
The sky was star-less.
Gems shattered and strewn about
Swords, Sabres, Spears, Halberds, Great Swords
Emit a blood red radiance
In the middle of the battlefield
Sheathed in black-red wrapping
The king of swords stabbed into the earth
Emits loneliness for its wielders
Slumbers unknown to the tragedy
That had befallen his home.
Obsidian woke from his slumber
His workshop the once well known
Black Flame Empyrium Workshop was devoid of life
Upon realizing his fellow brothers in arms
Have disappeared, and the smell of blood hangs in the air
Obsidian ascended from his underground home
Upon returning from his deep slumber
The land was decaying
Dismembered bodies of his brothers strewn about.
The hundred of hours he and his brothers put into
Building a paradise where dreams gather
Lay strewn about in shambles of its past glory
The stone fountains, gardens, hand sculpted models
The breeze that use to be calming
And the song the birds use to sing
Are overcome by the bloody wasteland
Of abandoned dreams.
Innate greed is a weapon, and controlled greed is a blessing.
