Against the grain and back again,
The world twisted and fractured.
Shadows of demons cross the heavens,
Light of angels roam the lands.
Devastation and prohibition scour,
The souls of those living and departed.
Struggle and strife bleeds the life,
From the corpse of this ruined world.
Nothing left aside from stone and bone,
To remind is of what once was ours.
