Calnek - Woodland One

When creation falls to chaos, one path remains
Return to the wild

Into the storm, seeking escape
Swallowed whole, the wood is deep
Blood of the wild, flows fast and pure
Noble, unmerciful, boundless

Wending the ways of myriad paths
Drawn by an unearthly aura
Firelight glowing betwixt the trees
Marks the shores of enlightenment

Down from the hills, descent into fog
And there 'neath the fall, it dwells in the shade
O' wise woodland one
Master of consciousness, ruler of the eye
Passage bestowed, journey to infinity

Only one can travel here, only one can see
Shut out all the world
None other shall know, none other shall bathe in the light

At home by the river, in the valley of mist

Days spent in reverie, under sun, moon, and star
Conversing with the elder one, seated upon it's granite throne
Spirit-possessed, bound for the peak to the north
Wind howls across the trackless expanse
Spurred by the gods and a whisper from the dark

Gazing down upon the land from high
Aspect evolved, sight granted through the eye
Shattered perceptions, origin lost to time
Tower rises, a seat to rule the realm
Forge burns bright, consuming all
Donning armour of cognizance
Wielding the blade of verity
Step out into the new world
