1.
An ethereal call beckons from the void below. Crawl back to the black of wither and woe. Dissipating light adrift in the ether divine. Beyond spectral realms of ethereal light
2.
A putrid sludge comes forth dripping from the maw of doom. Knee deep in filth, it’s wrought. Shrines of flesh and ooze. Archaic madness looms bound eternal to Evergloom. Slime divine - beyond realms of space and time. Slime divine - hands clasped at malignant shrines. Premonitions of cosmic horror beyond the frailty of man. Manifested monolith, scripture of ancient tome. Desecrated for entities unknown. Sacrificial offering, not of body nor the flesh. Oozing forth an apocalypse, becoming one as the sun’s eclipse. A putrid sludge comes forth dripping from the maw of doom. Knee deep in filth, it’s wrought. Shrines of flesh and ooze. Slime symbiosis in the shadow of the Xenolith. Slime divine.
3.
Through twisted mountain paths a cavernous abyss lay still. Beckoning voice calls out from endless catacombs. Descending down to chasms unknown. A singular purpose - to find the phantom’s cry. Into the earth’s depths, completely void of light. Odious presence guiding every step. Memory abandoned the further I descend. Hypogean crypt. Hypnotic longing. Envisioned in dreams. Spellbound to the earth. Beckoning voice calls out. Envisioned in dreams.
4.
Creatures will bow for the bewitching call. Conjuring vex upon fetid intestines. Primal clairvoyance. Enchantress shrines. Body falters. Curse this bloodline. Arise - life to the limb. Arise - rise accursed kin. Arise - open mortal wounds. Arise for this flesh entombed. Suffering soul and a withering mind. An eternity of misery for cursed bloodlines. Conjuring specters yearning for skin. Flesh repossessed from visions within. Illusions. Flesh seer divine. “Evil and sorrow to thee and thine.” Gaze upon entrails of beasts. Gaze upon visions of flesh. Worshiping skin of ancestor’s divine. Curse rains down as the heavens align. Flesh curse of the false prophet. Wrath of the seer’s conjuring vex. Gaze upon illusions of tainted flesh. Writhing guts. Arise - life to the limb. Arise - rise accursed kin. Arise - open mortal wounds. Arise for this flesh entombed.
5.
Ensnared in hellscapes of my own design. Phantom wounds won’t subsume. Fester and writhe. Subtle aching, limbs forsaken. Astral aura dimly fading. Gateways somber and cold. Blistered and maimed. Portals to oblivion cast into chains. Wastelands dimly lit. Creeping dread. Wraiths adrift. Caverns grim and still. Fading, desolate. Void alone, a faint glow. Soul entombed, spectral noose.
6.
Doomed to realms of Evergloom. Entombed in abyssal fumes. A deathgrip on this noose still around my throat. Sunk into the crumbling soil below. Bones are shattered, swaying from the gallows. Lingering noose, suffocating eternity. Asphyxiated, collapse under its immensity. Cast to stone like pillars supporting the cosmos. An outer world I will never know. Held in my hands yet out of reach. Foreboding thoughts linger eternally. Void lost in abyssal fumes. Subterranean tomb. Inanimate servitude. Void lost. Doomed to realms of Evergloom. Entombed in abyssal fumes. A deathgrip on this phantom noose still around my throat.
7.
Celestial presence to all earthly woes. Scions longing for harmony. Curse upon the landscape. Unfinished creation. Collective murder rotting away. The Earth in decay. Asphyxiation. Asphyxiate. Weeping earth. The Earth is weeping only because it must. The bones of mothers returned to cosmic dust. Time is seeping through tombs of rust. The Earth is weeping, the mother is bleeding.
8.
Barren - the void’s soft glow corrupting legions of Watchers below. Wolf’s blood coursing through veins. Birds of ill omen and befouled arcane. Prophesized - Bastard’s misfortune. Demise has been foretold, flesh is forsaken. Manifest - Pus from the body oozing itself into something inhuman. Sorcery - black fires glowing. Encroaching darkness forever looming. Acolytes - abominations of the abyss vanquished by undead legions. Sworn by the blood of the wolf. Veiled in iron grey, armed in dagger and cloaks. Havens lost to aeons of rot sleeping in serenity. Exiled creatures of judgment. Emaciated old wolf of Farron. Curse this blood I was born with. Vanquished in this twilight. Nothing to grasp in cosmic blight. Barren. Curse this blood I was born with.

Evergloom 05:39
No worldly presence can occupy the void you left behind. I’ve festered for your return. For your gaze, I’ve yearned. Yet you still haunt me. Long departed from this plane. Yet you still haunt me. Do not wake me from this dream. Let it linger an eternity. Fleeting calm, this serenity. Lorn. Wisps of smoke escaping through fingers. Dissipating from the palm of my hand. Can I keep you to myself in our everlasting doom? Keep you with our hearts intact in this Evergloom.
