IN’EL
Music : Tougas - Composed in autumn 2018
Lyrics : David AB
Mouvement I - Intronisation à la Tyrannie
(instrumental)
Solo 1 : Tougas
Solo 2 : Tougas/Miller - Harmonie
Solo 3 : Forest
Solo 4 : Vincent Savary (Ex First Fragment)
Solo 5 : Tougas
Mouvement II - Recueil des ges
(instrumental)
Solo 6 : Tougas
Mouvement III - Les Piliers Tutélaires
Solo 7 : Tougas
Le livre s'ouvrit une dernière fois
La chorale d'infidèles chanta le rite de conversion
Puis l'adjuration vint couronner l'appel de In'El pour contrer le perceur de dimension
À l'éclosion de l'orage, les piliers du chaos se levèrent aux travers des pluies diluviennes
Dans les fondements du El'Praedium, le son des chaînes calottait sur les cloisons du purgatoire
Solo 8 : Tougas
À l'apogée du bouleversement, les cris de désarroi se perdirent dans l'oreille d'un mort
Les chrestomathies furent saccagées jusqu'à la souche, laissant sans mot les pages de notre histoire
Afin de contrer la sénescence, les lombrics intersidéraux pavèrent sans relâche la voie vers la renaissance
Les pilastres furent le seul rempart contre la morsure venimeuse du chasseur de tête
Les contreforts de In'El assurèrent sa survie providentielle
Et lui permirent d'écraser la lignée des familles originelles
Diviser pour mieux régner
Les règles furent altérées et transgressées
Renouant éternellement un cycle d'impétuosité
L'infection contamina l'entièreté de la cité
Mouvement IV - Éther
Dans la vallée des ombres, les âmes condamnées étaient en quête de purification
Se berçant au-dessus des eaux amères, l'éther antique s'abandonnait dans la dilution
Les parasites s'emparèrent sournoisement des plus vulnérables
Aveuglant toutes les bases de l'entendement
Amenant l'ère où l'humanité devint prisonnière de sa propre peur
L'âge où la chronostratigraphie commença à s'effacer de l'écorce
L'énergie hostile s'accapara de leur subsistance
Créant un carburant intarissable pour le seigneur de l'inexistence
Solo 9 : Miller
Solo 10 : Forest
Solo 11 : Tougas
Solo 12 : Forest
Solo 13 : Tougas
Solo 14 : Forest
Solo 15 : Miller
Solo 16 : Forest
Solo 17 : Forest/Tougas/Miller - Harmonie
Les pilastres furent le seul rempart contre la morsure venimeuse du chasseur de tête
Les contreforts de In'El assurèrent sa survie providentielle
Et lui permirent d'écraser la lignée des familles originelles
Diviser pour mieux régner
Les règles furent altérées et transgressées
Renouant éternellement un cycle d'impétuosité
L'infection contamina l'entièreté de la cité
Mouvement V - Assaut au El’Praedium
AUX ARMES !
In'El déploya sa puissance sur les légions rebelles
La trépidation de sa force emporta la totalité de ses effervescents opposants
Les uns après les autres, il les réduisit tous à néant
Les contres attaques devinrent futiles
Sa domination était absolue
Sa victoire était sans équivoque
Violenté, brutalisé, fracassé, oblitéré
Il jura de les exterminer jusqu'au dernier
Le combat en arriva à son point culminant
La veuve défendit le roi des défunts pendant qu'il rétorquait de sa macabre puissance
Les cadavres prirent d'assaut le tyran, en vain
Aux portes de la chapelle, l'ilote devint l'ultime obstacle
Un affrontement entre père et fils se préparait
Prêts à périr pour protéger leurs convictions
L'altercation fut fugace mais assez longue pour maintenir la diversion
Une détonation se fît entendre et le dernier pilier s'écroula
In'El retenu son souffle devant sa fin imminente
Mouvement VI - La Fin d’Une Ère
Solo 18 : Tougas/Miller - Harmonie
Tsïon'Yl apparut devant l'être opiniâtre et par le flegme de son étreinte mortelle, son serment vint à terme
Une fois de plus, je ressuscitai de ma chrysalide
Livide et asthénique, je redevins l'incarnation impavide
J'enterrai tous les événements menant à l'épilogue de In'El
Jusqu'à mon prochain engagement, je retournai à jamais en quête de gloire éternelle
Solo 19 : Tougas
