1. THE BECKONING BELL

Alexander Bradley - "Departed Earthshine"

Waning twilight, warden relinquished
The looming plagal cadence devoured in avaricious dreams

Chytridiomycosis, sickened land
Swallowed in amphibious eclipse
Sporangium clustered in dispersal formatons
Shedding Skin, freezing limbs, darkened instincts beckoning...

Ryan Sheperson - "Quest to Planet's Core"

Fungal Lineage of zoospores, fortress encircled
Enraptured in symbiotic quest
Foul progeny breaching fleshing portcullis
Lysotrophic incursion inside the armoured keep
Toppled like battlements, overswelling liquidous saprophyte
Siege towers erected, the castle walls are in sight
A helix staircase towards the shimmering bell
Halted vibrations, no reinforcements will come

Alexander Bradley - "Entangling the Great Belfry"
John Riley - "The Plummeting Roar"

Moss laden, glistening
Crystalline hiss in dormant slumber
Oxidised!

Alexander Bradley - "Moonscented Strike"

Ore chitin-protein
Aural undertow / Extra-tympanic / Beckoning chime / Nocturnal suffering
Swarming down the anitragus and columellar pathway
Eternal, echoing, transducer
Throne room spawning, moats buoyant with funereal sounds

Alexander Bradley - "Lances Lowered and Advancing Slowly"
John Riley - "Abyssal Meanding"
Krystian Zamojski - "Nuclei Splintered Entrance"


2. GUT-BRAIN AXIS

Writhed Dwell
Heaving silhouette from the frothing mudpits
Tempores bufonem mutanta...

Alexander Bradley - "Mutanta"
Krystian Zamojski - "Lunar Ailment Encumbrance"

Digested - Insides drenched in bufonid sorcery
Tortured - Mystical properties of the mycelium
Cerebrum - Cells condensed by a shrinking smog

Following the trail of lunar soil
Charged regolith stench

Alexander Bradley - "Vomerine Constellation"

Pass through the fanged mouth to the netherworld!

Gut-brain axis / A mirror to the surface / Within the five-stomachs
Gastro-psychosis/ Mystical poisons / Toad's bane

Krystian Zamojski - "Vibrocrypticity of the Mesentery"

Toad's bane!

Zenith of absent stars, only dripping tracheal passageway
My compass grows eyes and leers towards locks of clairvoyance
Curse the humours that set the descendants ablaze
Torrid magmarous scum in horrid bio-subterranean

Alexander Bradley - "Cross-Pollution of Metalline Vegetations" & "Alluring Skulls"

Apolune quest reduced to a dungeon crawl, encrusted and endless
The plait grows acrid and pungent, spiraling towards the source
Sweeping amber caverns reveal:
A scowling throne with its dingers down a severed nerve

Krystian Zamojski - "Induced Gastro-Oesopageal Reflux"

Spuming limbic nodes / Crushing ataxic funguses / Viral polypedal thing, entangled
Anthozoa hypnotised in symbiosis to form a gelatinous force field barrier

Krystian Zamojski - "Slaughtered Prey'

Spitting hallucinogenic honey - Vanquishing
End its exhausted whispers - Anguishing


3. SPLAYED MUDSCAPE

John Riley - "Ghoulash Broth: Preparation of the Ingredients"

Pulsing mudscape foray via pyloric advection
Ghoulish Charon deems the venerable through the gateways of Styx
Duodenum: Putrefying estuaries in organic oblivion

Meandering through labyrinths
Peculiar lifeforms embrace the grave in a foul backwater
Bloodworm dwelling, quaking quad-fang strike
Prying free from sinew, the devouring lamprey

Unneutralized acids / Flourishing brook / Spraying alkaline
Maelstrom agape / Curling finger / Revealing tincture

John Riley - "Ghoulash Broth: Execution of the Recipe"

Spied by wisps of firelight, goblins press in a throng around a cauldron
Tipping relish into stomach reservoir
Curdling mudscape: The lifeblood

Animus to remove the quintessence
Reformed equilibrium

Broth spills over interlocking spurs but percolation rises to reinfect
Aqueous solutions, viscous and carnal
Microplastic vitrification to permafrost

Intestinal estuary / Diluvial depositories
Bacterium flushed to to tested floodplain

Darkened flanks
Restorative carnage

Red, blue... Purple, brown... Violet, taupe

Alexander Bradley - "Neurons at Zenith: Revival Transmission"


4. BATRACHOMORPHA RESURRECTIONS CHAMBER

Alexander Bradley - "Lucrative Seat of Atropos"

Behind curtains:
Surreptitious schemes and resurrections...

Geothermal dominion, carboniferous oxygen breath
Genetic pools of amphibious ancestry birthed in the crust of the Earth
De-fossilisation:
Tossed within the agape mountain, hoist the sluice gate
Gush the reactionary solution
Progenitor cells incubation, mitosis begins
Batrachomorpha resurrections chamber

Fused-skull brutes steak through the mist
Embolomeri jet streams
Memories of the ancient homeland:
Sunken into the mantle or iced over in Antarctica

War, war, war!

Alexander Bradley - "In a Mist of Morphallaxis"

John Riley - "Madman's Toil"


5. THE HISSING MOOR

Vacant cavity, looted fortune
The moon's eyes are fixed upon me...

Krystian Zamojski - "Parallel Moorland"

John Riley "The Stench of Singed Blood Dispensed from Heads Mounted atop Marching Spears"

Petrified forest plateau / Steep meandering passages / Jurassic layers
Spore storm track deduced from the execration texts...

Swallowed up by the heaving Earth, igneous legions emerge
Calligram strata prophesied from crimson smoke
Every worst woe befell the city, which drank the cup of Gods fury to the dregs
Jericho's exit to the cave of Solomon

Alexander Bradley - "Warblades of the Deadly Mubarizun"

Ignite the blood of Christ with apocryphal kindling
Extinguished covenant reclaim the waters of Theia

Descent of Veryovkina
Syphon path blocked / Disassembled and retrieved / Wading through sump

Scimitars of aragonite deep in orthorhombic stages
Speleothemic sobbing, Zedekiah's blind tears awash!

Fossilised echinoderms whisper to the calcareous roots in the tongue of Tethys

Alexander Bradley - "Afgaeus Bloom"

Adenoids are swollen from the screeched hiss
Swathes of drapery shake as the tessitura is shattered

Krystian Zamojski - "Forging the Fetters That Will Bing the King"

Uncloaked stenches of surface dwellers from an uncounted exile
Witness the highborn brood put to slaughter
A fallow buck stares as the arrows of Nebuchadnezzar fall


6. TIDAL SLAUGHTERMARSH

Alexander Bradley - "Sea blue..."

Now. All is abrasion

Punishing quiescence
Ashflows, lurching monstrosity
The pestilence swept away by legions of seismic summoning

Alexander Bradley - "...Cobalt red"

Now. Flowing into lakes of ash and blown into tornado hell winds

Alexander Bradley - "Gibbous Tectonics"

Thrashing and writhing
Implemented with their obtuse deliberation
Soporific and somniferous
Choking the heavens with the stench of the acquittals of the guilty

Arachnodactyly reaching for the glutton
Limbs elongate and your suits tighten against the bones
Absorb the marrow to be one with the eventual Earth
As you wished the contracts bear your name to the dirt

Bursting from a seismic impingement
Secreted upon the shores of armageddon
Lissamphibian and temnospondyls converge

Impious - They stood by and acquiesced the insurrection
Now bequeathed - A terrible weapon without guide or objective prerequisite
Eldritch - The chalice inscribed with curses of inversion
Terrortomes - Coastal nymphs' oracular divination

Bursting from a seismic impingement
Secreted upon the shores of armageddon
Lissamphibian and temnospondyls converge
Seeping from the inverted underworld

Sedimentary beast formed from erosion

Krystian Zamojski - "Spherical Catalyst Cabelling"

A phthalate chalice gasps for air as the elder swamp emerges from deep fathoms
Earthen scales, gleaming foul mire
The land dissipates by will of the doomsage

Alexander Bradley - "Taking the Auspices: An Augury of Infrasound"
