  1. The Dark Tower
  The one place where evil reigns
 Where the guardians of the tower keep watch
 
 The one who stared into the face of insanity
 Impaled at the gates of despair
 Calling a curse upon the mighty tower
 Until the master of the past and the present
 Shall return with power
 None shall pass into the accursed woods
 Without the seal of its master
 
 Proud warriors shall fear its embrace
 Mortals who enter shall never return
 Void of life, awaiting my call
 Awaken my friend, for now I am your master
 Black bound tomes, cloaking secrets of the dark arts
 The keys to my final victory
 
 Within the shadows of my laboratory
 The site of my greatest creations
 Life shall be called forth by the power of my magic
 
 Untouched by the sun, blacker than the darkness
 The watchmen bow before me,
 as I plan my greatest triumph
 
 Silence and darkness are the ones I can trust
 None shall disturb the master of the tower
 While I forge a power stronger than the gods
 
 
 
  2. Chill of the Grave
  Behold dark queen of the night sky
 A challenger to your reign is calling
 I am coming for your seat in the hall
 
 With your key and the tomes of the great one
 I possess the power to usurp your throne
 All that I need is access to the abyss
 I must find a soul of purity
 
 Her blind faith in everlasting innocence
 And my quest for eternal creation
 Will open the portal in Zhaman
 
 I must pass the test of
 Wind, Water, Darkness, Fire, and Blood
 It will bring knowledge
 Of emptiness and pain
 
 I will not rule over a dead world
 The abyss is calling for me
 I will feel the chill of the grave
 
 
 
  3. Unholy Grimness
  Eternal will and strength
 Shaped by the darkest forge
 Reaching the heights of the gods
 I stand at the center of the world
 
 Rising above the filth and decay
 My ambition is above the world
 I am alone on this quest
 Seeking none to stand by my side
 
 It is always winter in my sight
 Beauty becomes death none can escape from
 The crushing gaze of the hourglass
 
 Endless hunger for the knowledge of a master
 Filled with a darkness without dimension
 I control the river of time with only one goal
 No god can halt my powerful fury
 
 My frail shell cloaks a deadly force
 The gods themselves will tremble in my presence
 
 An unnatural hole of darkness
 Radiating in the night sky
 I will raise the hourglass
 I will rule unchallenged
 
 
 
  4. The Test
  On the 7th day of the 7th month
 During the 7th minute of the 7th hour
 The conclave will summon my presence
 At the tower in the woods
 
 To face the test of high sorcery
 From which many do not return
 Where I will gain the right
 To enter the private realm of magic
 
 Accompanied by a fool
 Who greets his weakness with a smile
 I begin by entering the forbidden inn
 Seeking refuge from carrying the burden
 
 Bringers of doom greet my presence
 I will follow their dangerous path
 Seeking the tomes of the war magus
 I am drawn to his cold grasp
 
 Revealing his plans of triumph
 I plan my own ascent to the sky
 Using his magic to crush my enemies
 And resist his deadly bloodstone
 
 Facing one final obstacle
 I annihilate the false one
 Who threatens my final victory
 I have been granted access to the order
 
 
 
  5. Master of the Past and the Present
  Once the hand the kingpriest
 The age of your might has passed
 Your cold hand seeking my heart
 Your bloodstone draining my life
 
 I do not fear your deadly grasp
 For I will become the true master
 I will rise into the night sky
 
 My body forever shattered in torment
 Feeling the presence of your ancient hand
 Guiding my future into the darkness
 I lie before the giant hall
 Broken by the power of the great orb
 I will call for your aid
 
 You cannot see my future you know not
 I bring your doom you will answer my call
 My ascent to the great tower is complete
 
 With the key from the dark queen of evil
 I will find the secret of the abyss
 In the forgotten ages of the past
 
 You were master of the past
 Now you are just a frozen corpse
 I am now master of the past and the present
 
 
 
  6. I, Magus
  My soul was forged by the blow of the hammer
 Finding comfort in the darkness
 My only true companion
 The power of magic pulsing within my spirit
 None can break its grip of fire around my heart
 My will for creation cannot be overcome
 It will bring my only moments of solace
 
 A teacher without a true spirit
 But one with the discipline I will need
 Unworthy tormentors fuel my hatred
 Feeling the sting of my misanthropic fury
 Gods of magic I will serve you
 I will bring glory to your name
 Grant me the power that I seek
 Let the fire burn strong
 I will rise from the ashes
 Leaving my mark in the untouched snow
 The crisp winds of my eternal winter
 Breathe a chill of life in my soul
 
 My soul was forged by the blow of the hammer
 Finding comfort in the darkness
 My only true companion
 The power of magic pulsing within my spirit
 None can break its grip of fire around my heart
