II - The Escalation Of Self
Swarming hungry cohorts
The bastards flooded forth
Like a river breaching banks
Devouring the lands
Glorious kingdoms rose
The vain ruled the fools
Her towers eclipsed the sun
Mankind levelled with none
Remote from the chambers and halls
Far from the courts and castle walls
Thinkers and deifiers gathered
Sharpening thoughts and cloaked daggers
