Incantations of the Apprentice

Through eerie reach of ancient woods
Where lumbering mists arise
I journey for nines moons of the year
To where a land of legend lies

Deep within a stony lamp-lit hall
Under falling grains of sand
Magic eyes glance magic pages
Turned by magic hands

And as he spoke I watched in awe
A God's aura in his eyes, master of all
Darkness fall, spirits arise
Lord of storms blacken the skies

With heavy breath, I break the seal
Howls echo through the room
Blood lettings of a black raven's heart
Conjure up the wraiths of doom

I cannot heed my master's call
Lakes of fire writhe and swell
Foolish eyes while spying prophet's pages
Unleash barons of hell

And as they rose I watched in awe
A God's aura in my eyes, master of all
Darkness fall, spirits arise
Lord of storms blacken the skies
