Stheno (10th Anniversary Remake)
Sister, I will always be here We are the sea and forever we remain Through all years, I will keep you near Sister, I will always be here Mount Olympus stood grand, casting shadow across the land Ceasing the sun's existence in the caverns below Under the realm of gods, rumoured daemons living where land meets the great sea Said to be spawn of gods themselves; eating voyagers of the sea The daughters of Phorcys and Ceto; born below the world Damned to live forever hidden from the sun Legend demonised Stheno and immortal sister Euryale; elegant, gentle and caring creatures Living in harmony with waves for a thousand years of the early age Fortune cursed the Gorgons in the form of one god Young Zeus arrived, hunting for the head of such a creature The peaceful and wise Stheno witnessed Jupiter's arrival On the island and fled, fearful of his intentions Neither man nor god set foot in the caverns until the young one came Confident in his youth and with malice in heart He took chase, hunting the mortal Stheno as she ran to protect her sister, but to no avail The caring woman impaled by Jupiter's sword All that I know lies here bleeding Love forsakes me; I am undone You were comfort; my compassion Love lies broken; I am undone Jupiter lifted the corpse by the hair and detached the head Turning only a menacing smile to the young girl as he fled the island All that she knew in life lay beheaded and in spasm Jerking violently and staining the rocks in sharp blood And for thousand years that followed, the girl mourned her only love Screaming out to the sea that had given her false safety Alone in the world, Euryale in time became her own myth Luring and killing the men of sea who wandered too far from the known Feeding on the eyes and brains, and all that she felt caused mankind to commit wrong
