letra de spires and swords to pierce the sky - huntress of stars

as i again walked the wastes, my enemy in the sky punished me
for daring to hide from her view
pouring her fire on my newly healed flesh
and yet i mocked her vain attempt to dissuade me
for now i had purpose:
to bring the knowledge of the sentries to the survivors
that we may rise

the first settlement i found was full of ill and diffident wretches
shutting their doors and averting thеir eyes as i approached
but i mountеd a dais and bid them gather round
and spoke to them the words they’d ever longed to hear

“i was like you, my friends, but a brief time before
scared and without hope, cowering from the sun
but every myth that you were spun as a child? each was true!
we are the inheritors of a great and n0ble world!”
to the gathered crowd i told tale of machines and ideas
relating the wisdom guarded by the sentries
“stand,” i said. “take up the mantle!
for our forebears reigned o’er an empire
with spires and swords to pierce the sky itself!
to create or destroy at whim like churlish gods!
and not all was lost when their world was put to flame!”

enthralled, these survivors cast away what little they had
and followed on my path, as we sought converts for our cause
in settlement after settlement, we preached our sacred words
and our coterie grew to multitude
and we stalked the wastelands, like a sea of locusts
gathering all to our cause
finding allies among the meek and cowed
so fervent were we that we could barely feel
the fearful sun crying
intoxicated on our piety, we heeded not her admonitions
even as her crimson army mobilized to intercept us
brandishing their vermeil blades
fearsome and brutally merciless

- huntress of stars
