He rode the light of the sun, A golden apex, fierce and high, Before the shadow-work begun, And swallowed up his summer sky

A venom crept through fur and quill, To twist the kingly heart inside; The solar beast was forced to kneel, As hell-fire rode his royal pride

Now plunging through the ruptured cloud, The shattered demigod descends, With blackened talons, shrieking loud, Where holy light and nightmare blends
