about

- A loss to mourn -

The Catalyst continues his destructive deeds against the One-Above-All.

But slowly, the skies were shifting to a darkened, blighted shade of grey through the harrowing Corruption. The Catalyst gradually felt that he was losing control over the purification he was enacting over the Creator's minions.

Now, the real battle had to take place. The final opposition between wisdom and chaos was about to commence.

The Catalyst then realised his only chance to fight the gangrenous Corruption back was to obliterate the whole of the universe, even though it would lead to the catharsis' jeopardy.

The world has to return to ashes and dust, to revert to an arid and barren stretch of vacuity. The only way to take over the Creator.

A risk to take, a sacrifice to make. A purification to behold.

lyrics

I was once among yours, ashamed to be part of your kind
I’ve been chosen by the Lords to watch over you, to choose your path to be
And now I stand here silently, ready to tear your world apart
Born to engender titanic mayhem

Chained hands of humanity trapped between wisdom and chaos
From its spreading plague, my will compelled to carry extinction
The death of knowledge, a paralysis of years of evolution
A sacrifice we have to make

Abjure your quest of salvation before me
For there’ll be no greater perspective for you

Lords of light
Is there bliss in our design?
Or do we have drowned
In the same void that we have made?

Be prepared to consume your last breath, decimation of lives
To rejoin a desultory nameless space, illusive sign of death
As the lunacy of the almighty is draining the sands of time
Thus, nothing will be relieved

Stare at the last rays from the sun, time freezing for a moment
A leap to the other side for humankind, abominable and hateful
Strife between the majesties of this monumental universe
Behold thy purification!

Cherish the behest of your crucial downfall
For there is no greater perspective for you

Lords of light
Is there bliss in our design?
Or do we have drowned
In the same void that we have made?

Can we avoid this dreadful fate conceived for all?

Struck with shades of light at the crack of dawn
For there is no other perspective for you

Lords of light
Is there bliss in our design?
Or do we have drowned
In the same void that we have made?

See how your lives
Are nothing for the Omniscient
No one can be saved
From the grip of its loathsome scourge

Now the voices slowly extinguish
A deafening silence for centuries...

Oh, I mourn thy loss!
