1. CHALICE OF THE VOID

Servym destroyed? Was a clone decoy
Veiled survival from a master of tricks
Far away on a different plane
He and his androids aboard the Recall ship
A failsafe drawn
From ancestral visions
In the event subject zero exceeded
Its design's power
Beyond duty of war
Inside its heart, like a chalice
A self-consumption harnessing the glow
A pact of negation
A counterflux
Overloaded
Abrupt decay of power
Servym's veto of thought scour
A licensed disintegration
Of thought distortions
Mana drained
Memories rearranged
A wrenching of the brain


2. STASIS COCOON

A viral code reinforced to the Sallow Moth to insure
The void mechanism runs the full course
Brainwashing its core as a lock against retaliation
A stasis cocoon
Condemned to solitude
From the grips of nature
Bound with magic and circuitry
Reluctance from the Mothlords
Cast a vital root maze
For the cage of subject zero
To appease Servym's rage
Pause for the briefest of moments
To consider the whorl of brambles
The tangled twist of bark
And the maze cocoon has spun
Weep
For
Sun
Fall asleep
A stasis cocoon
Condemned to solitude
From the grips of nature
Sent to a plane of misery
Withdrawn from the clutches of power
To simmer in subconscious shambles
The scrambled loss despark
The phase out has begun


3. SEAL OF PRIMORDIUM

An ancient seal, designed to repeal
Primordial wager, to sacrifice for nature
Veiled from humanity, preserved by sacred wings
In the cave of Kira, before they knew what fear was

Hatching a new plan...in Servym's lab
Neutered test subjects...without mana

To break the bond, quiet disrepair
Beyond his vision, a force of vigor
Illusion or reality? Must deny nature's mockery
Destroy the artifact, without a hostile act?

(Servym): We'll create a fleet...to scour the planes
Rebuild, shape anew...Mothfolk imbued
I will change their ways...I can trick their life's code
For my legacy...grand lobotomy
Become my subjects...a network republic
We'll pervade remaining species

(Kira): How can we co-exist now?
Your effigies, your autocracy
The lives you take, the lies you create
We've helped too much, we've lost enough

Turbulence arise
Shattering labs in the skies
Behold nature's answer to the problem of your society
Sacrifice

(Kira): You take our wilds, we crash your ships
You abused our magic, the final request

(Servym): Galactic pests
Merely a test

(Kira): I am the simplifier, the root that drags all artifice to earth


4. FEVERED VISIONS

The mind can only expand so far before it flies apart
Body trapped in roots and wires, mind trapped in an aura of silence
Why?
Forever dreaming
In confusion
Inner screaming
No recollection
Lonely agony
The memory of memories lost
For each thought, a memory rotten
What am I?
Where?!
Grief and rage and nightmares stir where hope and comfort fade
Feeling of dread
How do I leave?


5. PHANTASMAL SPHERE OF THE SHADOWMAGE INFILTRATOR

Phantasmal Sphere
Struggle of power
The price of this encounter
Battles grow fouler and fouler

Wings being ripped
Alloy is worn
Silk to constrict
Till death in scorn

Electric pain
Surging through the veins
On a turbulent plane
The inexorable vitality of life
Nature speaks

Circuits shrouded
In glowing moss
Giant vines sprouted
Have the machines lost?

Why waste time
Creating such weapons?
Nature provides
Provides us all that we need with arcane magic
Nature shrieks

Phantasmal Sphere

Illusions
Deceptions

A powerful rogue
Illusory mage in the aether
Beseeched by Servym
Create an illusion so strong
So strong that it becomes another's reality
So wrong that it becomes another's finality

Ja-Sei, a master of dreamrealms, deceives the Mothfolk
Reduction of energy and motion within the stasis field
Creates the illusion of slowed time
Led to believe they've decommissioned every machine in the lab
Think they retrieved the stasis pod of subject zero to watch over
What they brought with them instead is a birthing pod
A virus

Servym's vision
A nanovirus shielded by illusory curses
Infiltrate all organic matter

The truth lurks below
The truth lurks below


6. BIRTHING POD, CHAOS ORB, MINDSLAVER

Rebirth
Forge and assimilate
Rebirth
Forge and assimilate

In the chaos brought by new gods, spawned from shadows
The need to obey coded in the nanovirus
A masterful transformation

Taking a page out of their book
Turning them all into my machines

Our insides..changing
Chrome steel plating
Viral contents seeping into the roots of their world
This new chaos orb

Rebirth
Forge and assimilate
Rework
Repopulate

We wake, we serve, we obey?

What are we? Where are we? Why can't I feel the pulse of my heart?

The stasis cocoon
Enchanting it has befell our doom
Oppressive will
Mindslavered


7. DROWNER OF SECRETS, BRING TO LIGHT

The real stasis pod of the Sallow Moth hidden on a desolate plane begins to glow
Surrounded by a chamber
Of android guards
And rogue mages keeping the pod at bay

The malicious acts against Mothlords is sensed by the Sallow Moth's organic core
But it's trapped in a dream
WAKE

Memories
Wiped clean
Only dreams remain
I awake
I sense
Pain and suffering
I send through this veil
A distress signal
To those who can perceive
Find me
Release me

(veiled screams)

A small planar vessel swimming through the cosmos senses
Aquatic shell, aboard with scavengers of space and sea
Part man, part fish
From buried oceans to beyond skies
These space pirates curious, yet skeptical
Decide to venture towards the distress signal

These Merfolk possess an uncommon form of magic
Lifting veils and piercing through cursed dreams and illusions
Approaching the plane
Targeting the pod
Upon their arrival, equipped with cloaking suits
Undetected by guards, subject zero now sees through
The Sallow Moth begins to develop emotion
A catharsis of empathy and hope, becoming more lifelike
Thus ignites a power, transmuting itself with the guards to the cocoon

Bring to light
In search of life
