1. RITUAL OF THE FIRMAMENT

With empty chalice
We hailed the fervent void
Churning darkness of Ginnungagap
Black waters beyond the firmament

Through the yawning dark
I traced an azimuth to the vault of the skull
By these dim corners
Four winds break forth

From the ceaseless emptiness
An aura of gold appears
The empress enthroned
The wheel begins to turn

Ancient rituals remembered again
Archaic chants to Sowilō
Sacrifice to Álfröðull
A debt repaid in blood
