Under the veil of darkness, in the freezing winter realm. The winds, they scream with anguish, across the void of endless trees. In the forest of Secartha, we gather wood to feed the flames. True death is inching closer, tonight we will feel it's chill. The sky will collapse into madness, the rift will emerge beneath the eclipse of the dual moons. The wolves now howl under the pale glow of crystal spheres. The city is growing anxious as we ride on through the gates. Three years have passed behind us, a time of tranquil fleeting triumph. Soon they'll descend upon us, a new journey will begin. The sky will collapse into madness, the rift will emerge beneath the eclipse of the dual frost moons. Death is looming...From the watchtower the darkness grows. Inching toward uncertainty. Life's been quiet since beyond the wall, but peace cannot last. The turning of a new page. The atmosphere has shifted, foreboding clouds of fear. Death is looming...As the moons now disappear, a thunderous roar of horror. Cascading winds of seething power, Shattering the ancient panes of stained glass. They ride the rift of endless sorrow, raining terror upon our distant sacred lands. In time they will come for us. A declaration of total war. The eclipse of the dual moons. A blackened sky full of lifeless stars. The eclipse of the dual moons. Final strike of the lunar dawn. Crashing through the tree line, five steeds towing headless corpses. One still left alive with a message in his hands. "The sky has collapsed into madness, our city now burns beneath the eclipse of the dual moons."

Through the gates of dawn, to the Seven Hills Of Onyx. The horror has begun, a quest to break the circle of corruption. Immortal savagery. They've come to destroy us all. Paragon of brutality. At the tower of Owl Cry, through the mist of divination. Searching for the door, to the morbid caverns of damnation. Immortal savagery. They've come to destroy us all. Paragon of brutality. Into the depths below...Selenite caves of your fears exposed. Where the winds don't blow...Through the portal of bleeding, sightless eyes. Thrown to the Seven Hills, now a burning realm of horror. No match for their violent spells, a well of endless terror. The village now left in ruins, torched ablaze by the Heathen gods. Secrets of the last horizon, banished now for eternity. The tension will rise, their warpath will end, they must die by infernal march. Mangled bodies transfixed on tree limbs, intestines dripping from above. Abhorrent annihilation, a murderous display of lunacy. The tensions will rise, their warpath will end, they must die by infernal march. They descend from the clouds to pillage our sacred lands, charging their vital weapons of celestial violence. Paragon of brutality. Warhaze of a vicious god. Victims of a fiendish onslaught. Message of impending doom. Immortal savagery. They've come to destroy us all. Immortal savagery. Paragon of brutality.

The war is upon us, prepare to retaliate. No match for their powers, we seek help from the citadel. Perched high in the serrated peaks, the cruel mountains of the mystic ones. Divine secrets of endless knowledge. Mystifying power. Few have tried and all have failed, blind seekers of a fallacy. Damned to eternal hell, thrown from the cliffs to the spears of ice below. Paralyzed in agony, searching for the answer. Ascend towards the summit, the sorceress of unending woe. The winds howl, the rocks crumble, taking shelter beneath our shields. The ground trembles, the path gives way, grasping at the roots of trees above. Divine terrace of precious stone, lurking just beneath the clouds. Twin figures carved from ice, the guardians of the realm. Octagon of golden hues, a gateway to nowhere, a shrine of endless solitude. At the center the ice cracks, the effigies now arise. Ancient giants reawakened, swinging imposing hammers of cold sorcery. The others they did not fall, they were thrown to the spikes below. Ignite our weapons with blazing fire. Feel the hate of burning steel. Strike them down with unhinged fury. Shattered and thrown to die. In a moment of endless silence, a bridge appears of violet fog. Through the mist we see the fortress, refracting light of its crystal walls. As we approach a door now opens, summoned to its brooding shadow. Sitting on a throne of jade, the enchantress of the skies. "Warriors of Secartha, first to dethrone the guards. I am Neera of the Guild Of Sage. These secrets I will reveal. See the chaos rise within my magic mirror...Behold the Lunar Dawn...they've come to kill. Slaughter. Control the mystic realm. Leeching every resource until the wells run dry. You'll fight through immense, desolate, valleys of fire. The spires of Secartha shall not fall. The allegiance is formed, we'll fight back as one. With unrelenting force our foes shall die"

"Dikeptor, within these flames I can see your burden. I have fought alongside your family in the dark siege of widowstar. Descend from the mountain and follow the raging waters. Within five days ride you'll emerge in the black swamp. Listen for the echo of the anvil. Look for the eyes of the glowing silver horned owl. A gift awaits you...For many years I have kept it, but time can wait no longer." (Letter from Vecanithzar) Riding the violent surge of cyclonic waters, a grueling descent to the cryptic forge. Spit into the swamp, the spectral land of moss. Guided by the clamor of pounding metal. As we lurk past the grove of hollowed trees, entranced by the glowing torch of a menacing shadow. The legend of bloodshed, creator of pain, the mastermind of vengeance, skillfully deranged. Curator of death, the slayer of kings, all will die beneath his blades. "I've sensed you near in the abyss of dancing flame. I bestow you now with a sacred horror. Cast from the skull of the fool who betrayed your father. His face immortalized in agony. Enchanted with power, for each man you strike, enslaving their souls to purgatory. The golden assassin. All knowing weapon of transcendent fury. Only your blood can wield it now. Sensing every move, you will fight two steps ahead. Intoxicating fear of the sound of whipping chains. By force you will prevail. Omniscient flail of infamy, keeper of fallen souls. Omniscient flail of infamy, immortal annihilator. The secret to this victory is hidden inside your mind. Manifest your dreams of fearless valor, in the ruins it shall rise." Omniscient flail of infamy.

500 moons ago, the new dawn of killing steel. A battle waged of unseen fury, final clash of the ancient ones. Endless waves of fearless warriors, victims to the chains of time. A battleground of immortal brutality. Eternal warfare. The spirits of the damned live on. Eternal warfare. Souls recast to avenge their gods. We must dig, and harvest the land. Enchanted death. Fortified by bloodshed. Strengthened by violence. Forged from the souls of those that died. Summoned from death to kill again. Gather now and heed my call. "We will fight throughout the night, our swords will swing until the black rain falls. With strength we endure. We'll hang their bodies from our castle walls. They won't fall easy, vast casualties of cosmic struggle. Annihilation. Thrive on the thrill of violent ecstasy." Eternal warfare. The spirits of the damned live on. Eternal warfare. Souls recast to avenge their gods. We must dig and harvest the land. Enchanted death. We must push back toward Secartha. Reinforce the barricades. Prepare for the final strike of The Lunar Dawn. We'll envision their every move, prepare for all attacks. The tides of war can change with a broken hilt. Their forces we will weaken. With wisdom they shall die. Bludgeoned by enchanted weaponry. We will fight from every angle. Ambush until they crack. The killing won't cease until the sound of the victory bells. The quest to find the answers in this harsh and vengeful realm. Visions of a world worth living for. In your suffering will come anger, screaming for escape. You must slaughter them beneath the weeping clouds of madness. Fortified by bloodshed. Strengthened by violence. Forged from the souls of those that died. Summoned from death to kill again.

Onward toward the western hills, to the Red Lake Of Agathar. Hauling weapons from the cryptic forge, tot he soldiers of Secartha. The final stage of our journey home, to the black gates of our castle. One thing stands in our way, the Valley Of Fire. Carved by the elder gods, with their scathing eyes of sorrow. Warned by her prophecy, we stand guard for all attacks. The path is blocked, eroded by cascading magma. With no escape, forced through the passageway. The door slams shut, creeping through the moonstone halls. The end awaits, a monolith of enduring struggle. As I engage the stone, we descend to the tomb below. A crypt of boundless skulls, the chamber of agony. A sweltering hell of ancient bones, with an altar of obsidian. Through the eyes of thousand heads, a vile creature now revealed. The serpent lord, hybrid beast with the tail of flame. Torched to death, falling victim to its scornful wrath. We fight through opposing odds, dodging blows of mystic power. The final strike, its tail now severed. Blood drips from the sword of wisdom, now impaled between its eyes. As we climb the stairs of death, we arise upon a cloud of smoke. Gazing past the opaque waters, born from a blood soaked sky.

Reinforce the barricades, for soon they will attack. When night falls the horns will sound, with archers drawing back. The curtain wall will hold them off, our spears they will impale. Murder holes wills trike them down, neck crushing massacre. Siege warfare. Siege warfare. Siege warfare. Pulverizing trebuchets, load the stones of hurling death. The barbican will slow them down, exposed in the killing zone. Impervious fortress of combat. Expel your fears from consciousness, manifesting your victory. Wield the sword within your mind. A war within a war...internal onslaught...cerebral genocide... When darkness falls we'll defend our home. Luring them into our fatal stronghold.

"As the day fades into the darkness, beneath the incandescent hanging moons. We will march within the glory of a blood-stained fog. For three winters, I have drifted beyond the frozen starlight of a thousand worlds, amassing my nefarious servants of slaughter. At last, this realm will succumb to my celestial violence. We must storm their castles and dethrone Secartha - leaving nothing but dismembered bodies upon he war haze of smoldering rubble. In triumph we will banish the usurpers. All who are spared will soon follow the Lunar Dawn." Snow begins to falla st he sky fades into midnight. Scanning the horizon under the full hanging moons. Marching on, footsteps of intruding killers. Sound the call, they approach ten thousand strong. Their torchlights growing closer. In unison they chant. Echoing across the bailey, screams of encroaching death. The spires of Secartha, will not fall to you. The spires of Secartha, will stand long after you rot. As they stop at the trench before us, kneeling beneath their shields, a warlord now ascends and levitates. "Time to die. You will crumble beneath my wrath. Forged to kill. Your realm now belongs to me." Shooting a beam of fire, from his palms a violent spell. His army now charging at us, maniacal brutes of hell. The spires of Secartha, will not fall to you. The spires of Secartha, will stand long after you rot. Our arrows raining down, a violent storm of pain. The siege of our castle. Tytericon Now Revealed... "You fool, I will not die. I have returned to destroy you all. Invocating my raging force, I burn a hole in your feeble stronghold." We fight them off the walls, a full scale attack. Lacerating all who step to me. Outnumbered, we're pushed back to the inner wall. The flank towers, set ablaze by cosmic bloodshed. Unseen chaos, howling winds of raging battle. Obscene violence, lifeless bodies stacked in the chapel. The sky erupts, descending on a bolt of lightning. The siren, inflicting pain of chilling vengeance. The spires of Secartha, will not fall to you. The spires of Secartha, will stand long after you rot. (As the night fades to dawn, among the smoldering rubble. His pwoers now disabled. The fate of Secartha lies within Dikeptor's hands.) "At last! a fair duel! Your soul now will be mine! Your dreams will burn with the fires of hell! Fall to me! You are nothing behind your mask!" Omniscient flail swinging int eh sun, hamming your skull to purgatory. His body turned to ash, enshrined in everlasting torment. "Let the bells toll in victory"
