lyrics

I was the helpless witness of my people's holocaust, hunted and wounded
I was the helpless of my fate
They burnt our fortress to ashes
Bestial conquerors
Children of Chaos
The world I used to know about to fade

They turned me into a monster
A weak and ugly creature
A mistake into my own plan
I am now the last descendant

An infertile body
Dressed in a red melancholy

O Rhalina, can't you see what they made of me
I am the plaything of destiny
O Rhalina, I am a stranger to this world
I hold the power of the gods

I was over the seas and reached an island, on a dead ship steered by drowned men
A sorcerer gave me monstruous gifts
Instruments of my revenge anchored in my flesh
Eye of Rhynn and Hand of Kwll
Infernal keys to netherland

I was turned into a monster
A cruel and powerful creature
A champion into my own plan
The desolate king of netherland

An infertile body
Dressed in a red melancholy

O Rhalina, can't you see what they made of me
I am the plaything of destiny
O Rhalina, I am a stranger to this world
I am the slayer of the gods

Six fingered hand and jewelled eyes
Those hideous treasures of mine
Eternal champion of the law
Eternally trapped in cosmic claw

Fifteen plans to conquer and I'll never see...
Fifteen plans to conquer and I'll never reach Tanelorn

I swear...
I swear revenge
Revenge will be mine

I was turned into a monster
A cruel and powerful creature
A champion into my own plan
The desolate king of netherland

An infertile body
Dressed in a red melancholy

O Rhalina, can't you see what they made of me
I am the plaything of destiny
O Rhalina, I am a stranger to this world
I am the slayer of the gods

Six fingered hand and jewelled eyes
Those hideous treasures of mine
Eternal champion of the law
Eternally trapped in cosmic claw
