lyrics

She fosters golems to tend to her withering body
Celestial vitus runs from her eyes
Gives life to her thousand children
Crystalline automatons devoid of inhibition
They calculate and construct apparatus of bone and ivory to resurrect their dying matron
With renewed life the empress of the wood grips her curse, she inhales the foulness of the stale air
Though their shimmering eyes dilate with the newfound possibilities of their unbound state, they begin a ravaging.
Revived, she bestows the gift of freedom upon her creations.
A grave mistake.

A ravaging of the once fertile grounds, they forsake the bountiful fruits grown to keep them strong.
Unable to accept this betrayal, mother gaia destroys their grotesque towers.
They align against her in sorrow and desperation.

She molds three more subjects from subjects from sulfur, stone, and the fell trees still freshly wounded from their blades of quartz and ebony.
A spire of bone pierces the veil, the children bow their heads and sink low. Retreating into the gravel from which they came.
There exists plane that parallels our own, where moonlight rots the core, sunset reigns, and the foliage reigns supreme.
