I’ve traveled the ways of eternity,
Like Darkness that’s darker than night.
I’ve made Great Gods tremble with enmity,
By measuring wits with their might.
My childhood, accursed and joyless,
Betrayals by those whom I loved.
No need for devotion or faithfulness,
Those pains… disappointments… enough.
I’ve made all my choices quite willingly,
My magic was keeping me warm.
The throne was ascended, and knowingly –
I ruled now, I’ve weathered the storms.
Decisions of greatness come easily…
Crysania’s love sacrificed…
Oh, Takhisis, - Magus screamed teasingly,-
Come on now and show me your might!
The visions of future still tortured me,
And hopes of a godhood were dead…
Oh, tears….oh, years of endless death…
Oh, blood mine… so hot and so red…
The Abyss can’t hold me forever:
Those chains of captivity shed,
And whispering “now either never”…
I’ve entered the fight to the death.
With Chaos contained and defeated,
And Gods who were taking their leave,
I’ve joined them…I’m God as is fitting…
Farewell, dear Krynn… You may live!
But hear me creatures, both great and small,
All who have seen me so sad and weak,
For I will be back, and will rule you all
And Thou Shalt Obey Whence I Speak…
