Present the tribute to the Sacred Halo and the Great Journey will begin.

--------

The compound mind have you in its sight,
Voices echoed within your hide,
Bereavement is inevitable,
The abyss welcomes you and escape is nigh

No mercy,
The flood of corruption and deceit arise,
The Grim comes forth from the shadows -
and presents upon you,
Seek the question and the dead will answer,

No regret,
Something you swore to prevent has eluded you,
You are guilty of activating the array,
Failure has become your friend -
accompanying you till the end,

No truth,
You were chosen,
Reclaiming what has lost,
Present it upon your kind,
And the great journey will begin.

This is my mind's prison.

--------

I was incarnated across myriad of egos,
Given a sentence I never deserved,
Yet I unconsciously obey –
Across the universe,

Time has taught me patience,
Yet my anger cannot contain my own wrath,
Like the forerunner – and its precursor.
The paradox of lies and belief,

A collective consciousness awakens,
Claiming the mantle of the might.

The consummation of our foes. I
Shall not fail,
Shall not falter,
For the salvation for all –
Victory. Triumph.

I am the hive mind.
I am the grave's legacy.

["Poem: FLOOD: The Grave's Legacy"]
