Orb
Dark Watcher
Three went in, one came out My companions, young, strong, and I faced something unusual It was from another world, and its name is not pronounceable by human tongue But I got the orb Unfortunately, my companions saw it with their own eyes They are gone, there’s nothing left of them But I have it, and I know it is the key to stopping an unimaginable evil I don’t know how to use it, but It must be unlocked There is one who might help me, his knowledge on these matters is vast I must reach the University The Train is leaving All aboard! The Train is leaving All Aboard! From the dig site Orb in hand I’ll finally leave this wretched land! When I try to sleep I see the Orb It tells me secrets From other worlds And I awake with knowledge I shouldn’t have It’s breaking down a barrier I can’t understand I arrive town Pale as a ghost I haven’t slept in days Evading what I fear most But it’s secrets Will soon be solved Once I meet with The distinguished professor I arrive to his door and knock, it opens and I enter It quickly shuts behind me The room is dark, but lit with candles The professor isn’t here But four robed men are I barely feel the first knife enter But I certainly feel the next Blood Pouring from my wounds I struggle But there’s nothing left As the rooms goes dark The stabs never stop But I can see the orb It tells me things I don’t want to know But I accept them And in it’s light I’ll bask For eternity Tormented by unending visions Of other worlds, more brutal and loathsome than one could imagine It’s all that I am now
