Thirst of Knowledge
04:05
|

Once a humble commoner, unknowingly afflicted by a curse,
a curse of forced acquittance
Thirst of knowledge
Crawling through the depths of an unidentified temple, infested by spells of turpitude
Neuroticism of man, punished by a greater presence
Bone, Flesh and Soul, Will, Hope, Faith
All removed from life via leading forces
Agonal fluid draining from pores, each nightfall, cartilage imploding from pressure
Leaving behind a sirupy like substance
Bewildered, the man seeks for help
Only to harvest weak souls
The disembodied bones of a former tyrant pulsed with a hatred so strong, it left behind a mighty curse which guards the dungeon

Between, thousands of worlds, fools atoned, plentiful
Revering, in fear
Revering, in vain
Thine upmost important balance
Furthermore disturbed by mortals
Holy vermilion taketh these sacrifices gladly
Consuming, forming, contorting
Terrifying carmine spawns
Losing feeling, sight
Penance is futile
Feeding on vital fluid
Sanguine crawlers
Ichor Spit, tainting the walls
Abhorrent crimera
Relics of infestment
Beasts of restoration
Thine utmost important balance
Furthermore disturbed by mortals
Holy vermilion taketh these sacrifices gladly
Rotund but twisted, figures of crimson anomalies
Deeper, and deeper
Buoyant and Corrosive
Abominations spew forth
Deeper, and deeper
Buoyant and Corrosive
Abominations spew forth
Knowing nothing else, but to consume everything it touches
In an eternal state of malnourishment
Solo 1: Caleb
Solo 2: Dominick
(solos recorded by Caleb)
Eternal state of malnourishment
It seeks, only to consume purity
Tearing asunder disequilibrium
pulsing with - agony
Sharing a hive mind, unrelenting Fiends
Sole heart connected by a chasm and veins
Its sole purpose to ravage and infest
Culminating, most elevated goal has been achieved

The Deep Beckons
04:15

The rage of those below boiled without end
eons past with the lust for vengeance and satiated
then came a great flame from the sky
something inexplicable, unseen before
what some would call justice may ultimately be served
the deep, the darkness beckons
others see it as genocide
the titanic monstrosity is now lucid
devastation beyond comprehension
it's power is beyond, the crimson
the master and core of the world, rising after sacrifice
it calls
in the deepest recesses of terraria a monstrosity would be born
a guardian to imprison the light of the world
a hero to restore balance
all it would require to unlock it was the strength of a legend and the soul of a forgotten hero
(the) deepest recesses of terraria

A pastel colored, utopia
Whimsical creatures and scenery
Purifying, the excess iniquitous
Erasing the foul
Spreading purification
At the cost of before pure land
The filtered becomes the profuse
Profusion is bound to be filtered
Curing disease
Extreme clarity
Disrupt the disrcrepancy
Solo: Caleb
Solo: Dominick
Solo: Caleb
Solo: Dominick
(Solos recorded by Caleb)
The process is taking place
pink, blue, absence of scarlet
The infinite battle for stability is nearing it's end
Alas, the overarching purity cannot be achieved,
without eliminating all threat, that is man

Amongst multiple dryads, one of them most devoted
Purifies, cleanses
During times the great scourges afflicted the land
Her only goal to purify
Alas, the ending march of time took a toll
It even seemed hopeless
Inspiring despair, it grew dire
The hallow's aim became awful
Inspiring despair, it grew dire
The hallow's aim became evil
In a state of desperation she walked a line, unheard of
Inspiring despair, it grew dire
The hallow's aim became awful
Inspiring despair, it grew dire
The hallow's aim became evil
She grew into something hideous but beautiful
It was horrendous and for a false good
Deceitful protection
Vengeful empress with sordid intentions
Abysmal balance is met
Struck with a poisonous agenda
A tribulation of light and calamity
The only possible conclusion

corrupted worm-like creature
Massive, fearless larva who dwells in corruption.
crawling the soil, it feeds deep down under
unknowing, unseeing, profoundly deaf
the Eater of Worlds is not a single target, but a string of segments with individual consciousness

Solo: Caleb
(Solos recorded by Caleb)
the hive-like abomination awoken
corrupted worm-like creature
Massive, fearless larva who dwells in corruption.
crawling the soil, it feed deep down under
unknowing, unseeing, profoundly deaf

Moonfall

Twisted
Ruin
A kin long twisted by war
desperate prayers to the crescent god
Only hope, to bring eternal darkness to the world
Eternal Moonfall
Reflecting Sphere of Judgement
Twisted
Ruin
A kin long twisted by war
After, multiple years of dormant prayer
the guardian has restored unwanted peace, to earth
''we have taken an initiative, the holy ceremony''
a final nocturnal lunatic ritual
a panoply of hooded cultists
breeding the spawn of the moon
beams of finite light
adoration of the cosmos
delayed presence of the moon
a pale apparition throughout lunar phases
sublunar cult, a pendant
orbiting mass, infinite
orb of night, divinity
a final nocturnal lunatic ritual
Solo: Caleb
Solo: Dominick
Solo: Caleb
Solo: Dominick
(Solos recorded by Caleb)
The champion has slain us all
T'was in vain, our duty completed
We will conquer
Moon lord has made contact with humanity
