As transcribed from the books of the Cabilis Historians:
In a time now past Our steps bloomed glory Lead by the Chosen Protected by their Guard The hidden lord spoke His words we did hear With his knowledge we struck forth Purpose in our hearts
Angels once descended Harbingers of a blessing A brood was brought forth Two eggs Two brothers Raised by angels The Guard of the High Scale
Years passed And Angels did raise Two eggs Two brothers Ever vigilant in their duty When Chosen strikes forth Under boon of our lord The brothers hold the flanks
Time conquers all None can withstand Not stone Not flesh Not mind The thread that binds Withers and frays As centuries pass The flanks left exposed
Battle did come And Chosen moved with purpose Their lances locked forward The brothers at the flanks The Guard sought glory When spear came to bear Shouts were heard "The Guard! Our Chosen is slain!" Vanity? A spear head? Our lord cared not the damage was done
The Brothers then fled From death From shame From blade of sword A duty now lost Blood of a Chosen Staining their hands Brothers now abandoned by the Angels of Fear The land they walked Their only possession The pact now broken A Queen then appeared With promise of redemption Her words laced with lies Fell upon deaf ears Their desperation the wound A Queen's promise the poison A new pact drawn
The brothers now fallen Guards yet again Not of Chosen Not of Angels Only sorrow and contempt The wardens of shame Two eggs Two brothers A curse now to bear
