  • In a time when the wounds the Great Cataclysm wrought upon the face of the earth were still fresh, a cruel and powerful empire ruled the world with an iron fist. Life was bleak, and death believed to be a release. Athanor, a simple man with a complicated destiny, is forced through personal tragedy to put that belief to the test. In his frantic quest for solace and absolution, he strays into the distorted and gloomy paths of Irkala Kar, the Underworld. Trapped in the bowels of an ever-growing and all-consuming madness, Athanor will find out that the merciful oblivion of the dead comes at a high price. He will have to fight his way through a subterranean kingdom of horrors in a desperate attempt to escape judgment and eternal damnation. Can he really return from death itself? And, even if he does, will it be really him coming back to life, or some thing entirely different, forever twisted by the touch of madness?

    When a man loses everything he holds dear in this world, broken and ashamed of his own weakness, he must seek salvation in the realm of the dead: Irkala Kar. Tormented by the demon-voices of his own conscience, he will soon find out that what haunts him is not just in his head – it is all around him, taking on twisted and horrifying form. Abandoned in a nether realm of crawling nightmares with no name, he will seek a way back to the sun; yet the price for such an escape may be higher than he ever imagined…

about

An unholy stench taints the air where the guardian is busy, digesting every discarded foulness of the dead. Its screech pierces ear and soul as, locked in mortal struggle with a madman, the abomination breathes its last. Athanor (HE) laughs and severs a trophy from its hide: for when a horror dies what is there left to fear, but its killer?

lyrics

The Vengeful dark red of skies
Like dying embers,

Lie strewn above me –
A cyclopean gate
Now, before me looms,
Arched in ways that put
Geometry to shame…

Can harken the distant beat
Of leathern, membranous wings…

A stench of death
Prevails in the fetid air
And Something moves in the mist;
What shrouded horror doth emerge?


An unholy form thrust into the fore
That threatens now to
Claim my ONLY shard of sanity left:


A scarabean teratoma,
With cleaver-claws a’ hacking
And apron of human faces sewn,
Fixed its gaze on me…

Gods above, give me your strength to fight!
A DASTARD
I shall not prove myself today –
I’ll stand and slay…

Ye Gods below, is this all
You got to throw at me?

My scissor slices through its gut
Piercing shell to eviscerate…



In mortal throes my blows fall
Until, at last, I’m
Steeped in victory
the blood of my foe
Under THOSE weeping blood-skies!

Die, foul thing!
Now your wings are mine!

Thus, I soar through heavens sunless…

Another gate awaits,
A new nightmare to face!
