  Under a vault of heaven enemy

  A black procession sings the ancient beast.

  Nothing will remain of the World

  When Our Lord will be able to return

  Even the Angels from heaven will bow

  When on earth will grow the Shadow of the Tyrant.

  Prologue

  Mountain tops,

  Distant hills,

  Groans of tears,

  Diaphanous rays.

  The wind has changed the destiny of the world.

  No longer is certain the path of a man.

  Heavenly Heinar, the Creator of the stars

  In the young world sent the sign of his love

  The divine couple, decreased in the planet,

  Their duty played to the end.

  Life was so originated

  Of spirits, plants and animals the earth was fertilized

  But if in the name of love the divine plan was consecrated

  In the heart of the sons of beloved father envy crept

  While the mother in her womb protected the beloved offspring

  The demons led a life wrong

  Husband and wife split then

  While the two races fought fairs then.

  Until one day the goodness of the goddess was deceived

  Her soul imprisoned, humanity doomed.

  In the name of Evil rose up a new Empire

  Without man to oppose it proud.

  Behel, the Enemy, the Great Lord of Lords

  Under the yoke of servile put the lower Man.

  His will was law on the planet ancestral

  The desire for power was the father of evil.

  Man's life finally sets

  For none of the Lord that counts:

  A valiant servant became the herald

  Since that day, his spirit became firmer.

  The second whom voice charmed a stream

  But fate changed it because of that one

  who was the scourge of the world

  So when he talks the chaos spreads

  Detach themselves, storms,

  Result of Adramelech, heavenly voice.

  Eyes peering out of nowhere fate

  To Argo the omniscent nothing is hidden.

  Kaliban the mighty,

  torn apart by the Dragons,

  His dying wish

  From his Lord was realized.

  Iblis the treacherous, Mouth of Evil

  Scorpions and snakes wanted to look like.

  Hyperion the invincible had benevolent aspect,

  Human eyes apparently friend.

  Iridescent wings, stained with blood,

  Soon reveal his hunger langue.

  Of sylvan melodies was Minstrael the student

  But in his flute certainly will not find relief.

  Illusions and magic it can generate,

  Up soon, be quick, do not be enchanted!

  Ultimately reach the last two,

  Together they walk holding hands

  Of pain and death give proof of themself.

  Blessed is she who leads the armies

  With blood for her Lord filled the glass

  All creation responds to her calls,

  She is Lilith by turquoise hair.

  The effigy of death he brings on his face,

  Do not reveal him to be a fool.

  Of infinite knowledge has opened the door,

  That's Mefistofel, Lord of Doom.

  The return of the Lord was the proof

  That Fate finds no rest.

  The glorious Empire fell in turn,

  From heaven the answer came:

  The Stones of Power, great allies,

  Were finally forever hidden.

  At Junatar the cold rested in the ice,

  In green Renodia chosed the crevasses,

  Another one chosed the Fire of the Flammaria maintenance,

  The fourth provoked the swirling motion of Zolon.

  But one stone rejected the decision,

  Sages sang its opinion.

  Of a child's fate decided to change,

  Because in his heart they could hope

  To bring peace and a different world,

  Where's fate would not be adverse

  Ausel the Great blessed the child,

  He stared at it in the future and this was the prediction:

  In the darkness Dark you will bring your Light,

  In the days of darkness you will find your truth,

  From the abyss of oblivion you unleash your strength,

  Despite all, the Evil will prevail.

  Hard trials will wait for you

  To finally beat the ancient Tyrant

  His end is not far off:

  This is your destiny, Son of Talarana.

  Part one. Selthon
